I have a Kinect v2 and I am trying to connect it to my laptop using libfreenect2.

Here is what I have done so far :

  1. Got the libfreenect2 project 

    git clone https://github.com/OpenKinect/libfreenect2.git

  2. Installed needed dependencies

    sudo apt-get install build-essential libturbojpeg libjpeg-turbo8-dev libtool autoconf libudev-dev cmake mesa-common-dev freeglut3-dev libxrandr-dev doxygen libxi-dev automake

cd libfreenect2/depends
sh install_ubuntu.sh
sudo apt-get install libglfw3-dev

  3. I have an Intel GPU, installed beignet-dev for OpenCL

    sudo apt-get install beignet-dev

  4. Build the executable

    mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make
sudo make install

Everything successfully installed and the build was successful too.

  1. Launch the program 

    sudo ./bin/Protonect

The output does not display any error but the Viewer windows stay black :

It's best to report this issue on GitHub where we can track your progress.

Protonect uses OpenGL be default. What is your OpenGL version glxinfo | grep OpenGL? If the depth processor really running? To see if the depth processor is really running, look for [XXXDepthRgbPacketProcessor] avg. time log messages.

As you have installed OpenCL driver, you may also run ./Protonect cl.

Please follow up the issue on GitHub if you can.
