OpenNI (Version 1.5.4.0 - May 7th 2012) --------------------------------------- Website: http://www.primesense.com Forum: http://groups.google.com/group/openni-dev Wiki: http://wiki.openni.org Binaries are available at: http://www.openni.org/Downloads/OpenNIModules.aspx (The "OpenNI Binaries" section) Sources are available at: https://github.com/OpenNI/OpenNI or https://github.com/OpenNI/OpenNI/tree/unstable for unstable branch Release Notes: -------------- * At the moment, the default is to compile the code with SSE3 support (this is also true for the supplied binaries). If you have a CPU without such support, please remove the sse compiler flags from the make files. (A good hint for this error is that you encounter an "illegal instructions" messages) * MacOSX: Only OSX 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and above with an Intel based CPU is currently supported. * MacOSX: Drawing the depth/image maps via the mono .NET wrapper can be slow and will cause the FPS to drop. Build Notes: ------------ Windows: Requirements: 1) Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 From: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/bb984878.aspx 2) Python 2.6+/3.x From: http://www.python.org/download/ 3) PyWin32 From: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/ Please make sure you download the version that matches your exact python version. 4) WIX 3.5 From: http://wix.codeplex.com/releases/view/60102 5) JDK 6.0 From: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-6u32-downloads-1594644.html You must also define an environment variable called "JAVA_HOME" that points to the JDK installation directory. For example: set JAVA_HOME=c:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_32 Optional requirements (To build the USB device driver): 1) Microsoft WDK From: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=11800 The package already includes a precompiled and digitally signed 32/64 bit driver. Optional Requirements (To build the documentation): 1) Doxygen From: http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/download.html#latestsrc 2) GraphViz From: http://www.graphviz.org/Download_windows.php Building OpenNI: 1) Uninstall the previous version. 2) Go to the directory: "Platform\Win32\CreateRedist". x86 32-bit - Run the script: "RedistMaker.bat y 32 y". x64 64-bit - Run the script: "RedistMaker.bat y 64 y". This will compile and prepare the redist exe files that includes everything. 3) Install the exe you've just made which is located in Platform\Win32\CreateRedist\FinalXX\OPENNI-WinXX-1.X.X.X.exe (XX being the number of bits: 32 or 64) The installer will also create the necessary environment variables (OPEN_NI_xxx), add the DLLs to the system path and register the internal modules with NiReg. The visual studio solution is located in: Platform\Win32\Build\OpenNI.sln. When doing development it is recommended that you change the environment variables to point to your development directory instead of the default C:\Program Files\OpenNI. (This can save you lots back and forth file copying...) Important: Please note that even though the directory is called Win32, you can also use it to compile it for 64-bit targets (Win64/AMD64/x64). Building the USB driver (Optional): Simply go into the directory "OpenNI\Platform\Win32\Driver\Build" and run the "BuildAll.bat" script. For your development convenience, you can also use the solution: "Platform\Win32\Driver\Build\psdrv3.sln" but official driver builds should only be made with the batch file above, that uses the proper DDK environment. Note: The driver build tool requires a system environment variable called "DDKPATH" that points to the WDK installation dir (for example: "c:\WinDDK\7100.0.0"). To add an environment variable please follow these steps: Control Panel -> System -> Advanced -> Environment Variables -> New (at the "System Variables" tab). Linux: Requirements: 1) GCC 4.x From: http://gcc.gnu.org/releases.html Or via apt: sudo apt-get install g++ 2) Python 2.6+/3.x From: http://www.python.org/download/ Or via apt: sudo apt-get install python 3) LibUSB 1.0.x From: http://sourceforge.net/projects/libusb/files/libusb-1.0/ Or via apt: sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev 4) FreeGLUT3 From: http://freeglut.sourceforge.net/index.php#download Or via apt: sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev 5) JDK 6.0 From: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-6u32-downloads-1594644.html Or via apt: Ubuntu 10.x: sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner" sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk Ubuntu 12.x: sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk Optional Requirements (To build the documentation): 1) Doxygen From: http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/download.html#latestsrc Or via apt: sudo apt-get install doxygen 2) GraphViz From: http://www.graphviz.org/Download_linux_ubuntu.php Or via apt: sudo apt-get install graphviz Optional Requirements (To build the Mono wrapper): 1) Mono From: http://www.go-mono.com/mono-downloads/download.html Or via apt: sudo apt-get install mono-complete Building OpenNI: 1) Go into the directory: "Platform/Linux/CreateRedist". Run the script: "./RedistMaker". This will compile everything and create a redist package in the "Platform/Linux/Redist" directory. It will also create a distribution in the "Platform/Linux/CreateRedist/Final" directory. 2) Go into the directory: "Platform/Linux/Redist". Run the script: "sudo ./install.sh" (needs to run as root) The install script copies key files to the following location: Libs into: /usr/lib Bins into: /usr/bin Includes into: /usr/include/ni Config files into: /var/lib/ni To build the package manually, you can run "make" in the "Platform\Linux\Build" directory. If you wish to build the Mono wrappers, also run "make mono_wrapper" and "make mono_samples". Building OpenNI using a cross-compiler: 1) Make sure to define two environment variables: - <platform>_CXX - the name of the cross g++ for platform <platform> - <platform>_STAGING - a path to the staging dir (a directory which simulates the target root filesystem). Note that <platform> should be upper cased. For example, if wanting to compile for ARM from a x86 machine, ARM_CXX and ARM_STAGING should be defined. 2) Go into the directory: "Platform/Linux/CreateRedist". Run: "./RedistMaker <platform>" (for example: "./RedistMake Arm"). This will compile everything and create a redist package in the "Platform/Linux/Redist" directory. It will also create a distribution in the "Platform/Linux/CreateRedist/Final" directory. 3) To install OpenNI files on the target file system: Go into the directory: "Platform/Linux/Redist". Run the script: "./install.sh -c $<platform>_STAGING" (for example: "./install.sh -c $ARM_STAGING"). The install script copies key files to the following location: Libs into: STAGING/usr/lib Bins into: STAGING/usr/bin Includes into: STAGING/usr/include/ni Config files into: STAGING/var/lib/ni To build the package manually, you can run "make PLATFORM=<platform>" in the "Platform\Linux\Build" directory. If you wish to build the Mono wrappers, also run "make PLATFORM=<platform> mono_wrapper" and "make PLATFORM=<platform> mono_samples". MacOSX: Requirements: 1) For Mac OSX 10.7, Xcode 4.3.2 From: http://developer.apple.com/devcenter/mac/index.action http://adcdownload.apple.com/Developer_Tools/xcode_4.3.2/xcode_432_lion.dmg You will also need to download and install the "Commandline Tools for XCode - Late March 2012" package: http://adcdownload.apple.com/Developer_Tools/command_line_tools_for_xcode_4.4__late_march_2012/cltools_lion_latemarch12.dmg Note: Since Xcode is now a normal application, it no longer automatically install itself. You have to copy&paste Xcode yourself into your Applications folder. (or run the application "Install Xcode" from your Applications folder / LaunchPad). It's also recommended to run the following command after you do the above: sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/ For Mac OSX 10.6, Xcode 3.2.6: From: http://developer.apple.com/devcenter/mac/index.action http://developer.apple.com/devcenter/download.action?path=/Developer_Tools/xcode_3.2.6_and_ios_sdk_4.3__final/xcode_3.2.6_and_ios_sdk_4.3.dmg Please note that you need to register as a mac developer (It's free!). 2) LibUSB 1.0.x (The patched development tree) This can be installed by two ways: A) MacPorts: From: http://www.macports.org/install.php For Mac OSX 10.7: https://distfiles.macports.org/MacPorts/MacPorts-2.0.4-10.7-Lion.dmg For Mac OSX 10.6: https://distfiles.macports.org/MacPorts/MacPorts-1.9.2-10.6-SnowLeopard.dmg * You will also need to install LibTool: sudo port install libtool * And finally, LibUSB itself: sudo port install libusb-devel +universal Note: Do not forget the +universal, it's very important!! If you're previously already installed libusb-devel then use "sudo port uninstall libusb-devel" and reinstall it again with the +universal flag. B) Compile the source & install LibUSB yourself: * Change the working directory to the prerequisites directory: "cd Platform\Linux-x86\Build\Prerequisites" * Extract the tar file by running: "tar -xvjf libusb-1.0.8-osx.tar.bz2" * Change the working directory to the libusb directory: "cd libusb" * Run the following commands to build and install libusb: /autogen.sh ./configure LDFLAGS='-framework IOKit -framework CoreFoundation -arch i386 -arch x86_64 ' CFLAGS='-arch i386 -arch x86_64' --disable-dependency-tracking --prefix=/opt/local make sudo make install Optional Requirements (To build the documentation): 1) Doxygen Install via MacPorts: sudo port install doxygen 2) GraphViz Install via MacPorts: sudo port install graphviz Optional Requirements (To build the Mono wrapper): 1) Mono From: http://www.go-mono.com/mono-downloads/download.html http://download.mono-project.com/archive/2.10.9/macos-10-x86/10/MonoFramework-MDK-2.10.9_10.macos10.xamarin.x86.dmg Install via MacPorts: sudo port install mono Building OpenNI: 1) Go into the directory: "Platform/Linux-x86/CreateRedist".
