How to use orbbec astra in ubuntu 16.04

Since I am the beginner in ubuntu, I’m struggling to install programs. I cannot find any guide or tutorial for installing programs. Is there anyone can help me which I have to install to use graphical tools? Thanks in advance.

Hi Jihwan,
what are you up to?

Do you have a sensor? Have you downloaded and extracted the SDK?

There is a folder inside the SDK called ‘install’.

enter that folder and do the following.

  1. sudo chmod +x install.sh
  2. sudo ./install.sh

this should install the driver for Orbbec Astra camera.

to test you need to compile the samples provided. otherwise you may use the pre-compiled ones.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Prasanna
