Ubuntu vmware9/14/2023 I can get the published PointCloud2 data on the VM or on any Linux running machine. When you publish topics using the ros-win you have to setup the Linux machine as a master. I then use the PCL_IO to connect to the kinect, convert the data into PointCloud2 and I publish it. What I have is PCL-Win32 on Windows 7 and it includes the ros-sdk-electric for windows (Boost 1.44 because it is needed for the ros-sdk). I am on a 64 bit Dell with 32 bit virtual Ubuntu.īTW, I tried this same process running Ubuntu in Virtual Box, and never got it to see the Kinect.Įven if you can make the VM to connect to the Kinect, you still might not get data from it because the connection protocol is too slow. After that, the freenect-glview works (at least for me). Once they are all connected, they should show up as little USB drive icons at the bottom of VMware Player as well. Go through the same process to Connect to both of those as well. After a few seconds, two other devices show up in this list: "microsoft xbox nui camera" and "microsoft xbox nui audio". If I select that, it disconnects from the "host" which is Windows 7 and "Connects" to it with Ubuntu. If you select it, there is a field that says "Connect(Disconnect from host)". ![]() VirtualMachine-> RemovableDevices-> where the "microsoft xbox nui motor" shows up. It is tricky to get the Ubuntu to "see" the kinect device however, as Windows 7 grabs it first when it is plugged in. I can see my Kinect and the freenect-glview demo works and displays the RGB depth image and a full color video image side by side. ![]() ![]() I am running VMware Player 4 with a virtual machine of Ubuntu 11.10 and have installed openkinect libraries.
