System wide requirements

OpenKinect

A first introduction to OpenKinect can be fond here.

Taken from here:

sudo apt-get install git-core cmake libglut3-dev pkg-config build-essential libxmu-dev libxi-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev
git clone git://github.com/OpenKinect/libfreenect.git
cd libfreenect
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig /usr/local/lib64/
cd ..

If the process has worked correctly, you should be able to run one of the freenect samples:

sudo freenect-glview

sudo apt-get install cython python-dev python-numpy
cd libfreenect/wrappers/python
