Running skeleton tracking while viewing point clouds

[tanmayshankar]

Hi!

Firstly, thanks a lot for your code. It seems to be working when I configured the OpenNI + NiTE + libfreenect setup. I was able to visualize the tf frames as visualization markers as Rviz.

I've been trying to run the skeleton tracker while also viewing the pointcloud libfreenect provides - but to no avail. It seems I cannot run kinect2_tracker.launch while also running another driver for the kinect (for visualizing the pointclouds). DO you have any idea of how I can access RGBD data from your package, or how to make the freenect driver also publish pointclouds simultaneously?

THanks!

@tanmayshankar Could you solve the problem?

@Sawsie
Hey, I couldn't - accessing pointclouds seemed tricky. I used the Windows code for skeletal tracking instead.

@tanmayshankar too bad! Which Windows code did you use?

Could you launch the kinect2_tracker?

I get:
