How to get Kinect working with Cinder on a Mac

699 views Asked by At

I've been racking my brain trying to figure this out and I'm stumped. I'm currently following this tutorial:

http://examples.oreilly.com/0636920022657/Hack%2023%20Create%20Hand%20Tracking%20Trails%20Using%20Cinder/SimpleHandTracking.txt

However, step 7 says to add the Kinect.cpp file and the Cinder-Kinect repo that they mention https://github.com/cinder/Cinder-Kinect does not have this file.

Also, open to new ways of handling the issue.

Kinect Cinder SDK contains Kinect.cpp file and Kinect.h file. Most Probably, they are talking about these files.

Note : Above sdk is for kinect v1.
