Hi, <br><br>As you may have heard Primesense released their drivers as an open source project OpenNI  <a href="http://openni.org/">http://openni.org/</a>  <br><br>This evening we have successfully gotten ROS nodes running with these drivers on the Kinect.  This includes running demo of the NITE Skeleton tracking in the nite packages.  <br>

<br>There&#39;s still lost of work to do. If you want to try it out there are install instructions, and some demo programs to run  see <a href="http://www.ros.org/wiki/ni">http://www.ros.org/wiki/ni</a><br><br>Enjoy, <br>
