问题
I'm using the new kinect on win8.1 and installed the Openni2 and NITE2, but they can't find my kinect.
So what should I do to make it run?
回答1:
OpenNI doesn't support Kinect (v1 or v2) directly. But you may install a driver for that. I have used successfully the Kinect v1 with OpenNI in windows and Linux... In windows it is easier, you only need to install the Kinect SDK 1.8 for v1... I haven't test it for v2 though, but I am almost sure it doesn't work... most probably you will need to wait for an open driver...
In summary:
Does Openni 2.2 support Kinect v2?
No
So what should I do to make it run?
Wait for an open driver of kinect that works with openni
回答2:
In the kinect2 branch in the occipital OpenNI2 repository they seem to be working on a Kinect v2 driver for OpenNI2 based on the official Microsoft SDK. I haven't tested it myself though.

I was also trying to do this for my project and I found that Occipitals' github OpenNI2 source has a functional kinect2 driver in their "Kinect 2" branch. I could build this source and run the NiViewer,exe with Kinect 2.
It's simple:
1.Fork this:OpenNI2 Kinect2 source and clone a copy on to your computer at desired location, ensure Kinect 2.0 SDK is installed.
2.Build the solution: OpenNI.sln (unload the "Kinect" project if you have no Kinect 1.x SDK installed).
3.After building the OpenNI.sln, you will find Kinect2.dll and Kinect2.lib under directory you forked to>Bin>X64(/32)Debug>OpenNI2>Drivers
Copy these to the default directory of the installed OpenNI2 on your system C:\Program Files\OpenNI2\Tools\OpenNI2\Drivers (or the corresponding location in the build is Bin\x64 debug\NiViewer.exe)
Run the NiViewer.exe
