    Hi Everyone,

    I had a sandbox that was running but the Kinect camera broke. I’ve bought a replacement Kinect which runs Kinectviewer and can be calibrated, however when I try to run the sandbox it tries to call the serial number of the old Kinect. How do I get the sandbox to recognise the new Kinect or change the serial number being called?

    Thanks,
    Stephanie

    Without seeing the error you’re getting its hard to know whats going on. Have you tried running the ‘KinectUtil getCalib -0’ to get a new intrinsic parameters file for the newer Kinect?

    I try to run the sandbox it tries to call the serial number of the old Kinect.

    That should not happen; the AR Sandbox code only refers to the Kinect camera by index, not by serial number. What is the exact message you are getting?

    The issue is more likely that you don’t have a calibration data file for the new camera. You need to run

    sudo KinectUtil getCalib 0

    which was broken in version 4.1 of the Kinect package. I just released version 4.2 with a fix; if you used PullPackage to get the software, simply re-run

    PullPackage Kinect

    to install it.
