本教程展示如何写一个在Tegra Ventana（Android 3.0）上使用Kinect的NDK程序。

In this tutorial, we will show you how to write a native Android application (NDK) that uses Microsoft Kinect on the Tegra Ventana (Android 3.0) development kit. Although we have not verified that our setup will run on other platforms, the process we describe below shall be easily ported to other Linux based devices. To achieve real-time performance, we have used OpenGL ES2 to render the depth data as a 2D texture (see demo video), thus reduced the overheads in transferring and re-rendering the frames over the Java layer. Since the data capturing and rendering engine are fully multi-threaded, our approach can utilize the multi-core on the Tegra 2 platform.

Environment Setup (Ubuntu/Debian):
To get started, first you need to install Nvidia Tegra Android Development Kit on your machine. In our setup, we have used the Ubuntu-Linux (64-bit) version.

The setup shall be straight forward.

chmod +x TADP-1.0-gbhc-linux-x64-2011-06-23.run
./TADP-1.0-gbhc-linux-x64-2011-06-23.run

My default installation path is ~/NVPACK. Please make sure you flash the Ventana board with Android 3.0 (if you haven't done so before) at the end of the installation process. Also, please do backup the data before doing so.

Now once the setup is completed, you shall have the android ndk, eclipse, and TDK sample code, etc... installed.

raymondlo84@ealab_corei7:~/NVPACK$ ls -C
android-ndk-r5c android-sdk-linux_x86 eclipse oprofile TDK_Samples
Android_OS_Images apache-ant-1.8.2 nvsample_workspace readme.txt uninstall

Now to verify if we have setup everything correctly, we will run eclipse (the one in NVPACK directory), compile the source code (use Build Projects or Ctrl+B), and run the multitouch source code on the device (right click on the project name, Run, and Run As Application). Now you can touch the screen and see your fingers (up to 10) being tracked in real-time. Pretty amazing.

Important: Please make sure you uninstall the multitouch application after testing. Else, it will conflict with our current application.

Hardware setup:
At this step, we shall be able to run the sample code on the Ventana and confirm that the development environment is setup properly. If not, please check if the Ventana is connected to the PC properly.

The easiest way to know is to run

$adb shell

This shall bring you to the shell on the Ventana.

Next, we plug the Microsoft Kinect to the Ventana's USB port. To check if the camera is detected properly, we can check the dmesg with the following commands. ($ - bash shell, # the shell on the Ventana).

$adb shell
#dmesg

Then, we shall see the device is detected and mounted. Notice that Kinect is actually recognized as multiple devices: Xbox NUI Cameraand Xbox NUI Audio.Looks like the Microsoft Kinect has a usb hub internally.

#ls /dev/bus/usb/002/*

002
004
009
010

To override the permission problem temporarily, we can run the following commands. (IMPORTANT: We have to run this command every time we restart the machine, unplug the Kinect, or if the device goes to sleep! oh well!)

$adb shell
#chmod -R 777 /dev/bus/usb/002/

Once we have confirmed that the Kinect is detected successfully, we shall then replace the multitouch source code in the ~/NVPACK/TDK_Samples/Android_NVIDIA_samples_2_20110315/apps directory with the one we have provided below.

Now, we will go back to eclipse, and then refresh the project. (click on the project folder in eclipse and then press F5). Again. #chmod -R 777 /dev/bus/usb/002/if you haven't done so, or you will see a blank screen). Rebuild and run!

If everything goes well, we shall have the application running like the following video. To change the tilt angle on the Kinect, we can simply use the touchscreen as shown below.

Code Structure and Optimization:
In this section, we will explain the structure of the source code, the optimization steps and customization that we have made to make the code runs as efficient as possible.

Figure 1. The source code structure of our demo application.

Instead of recompiling the libfreenect and the libusb libraries from external sources (of course we can do that with static linked library approach or so), in this tutorial we provide a complete source tree, which includes the libfreenect and libusb libraries. (Note: Free feel to contact us if we shall not include this in our package.).

As we can see from Figure 1, the structure of the source code is fairly simple.

multi.cpp - the main code which handles OpenGL rendering, key/touchscreen events, and other logics (adopted from the TDK sample code).
kinect.cpp - a wrapper for the kinect driver, convert depth map to RGB and handles other callback functions from libfreenect (adopted from the libfreenect sample code)
libusb/* - the libusb source code for the USB interface.
libfreenect/* - the libfreenect source code which interfaces with the Microsoft Kinect.

Performance:

The runtime of the rendering loop is ~16ms, which translates to ~60fps. The key bottleneck of the algorithm is the texture loading step which costs about ~14ms to perform.

struct timeval start, end;
double t1,t2;
static double elapsed_sec=0;
static int count=0;
gettimeofday(&start, NULL);
getDepthData(depth_info);
loadTexture_depth(depth_info);
displayTexture();
gettimeofday(&end, NULL);
t1=start.tv_sec+(start.tv_usec/1000000.0);
t2=end.tv_sec+(end.tv_usec/1000000.0);
elapsed_sec += (t2-t1);
count++;
if(count>=100){
char buf[512];
sprintf(buf, "Display loop %f (s)\n", (elapsed_sec)/100.0);
elapsed_sec=0;
count=0;
__android_log_write(ANDROID_LOG_INFO, "Render Loop:", buf);
}

Total run time (averaged 100 trials) :

I/Render Loop:( 4026): Display loop 0.016168 (s)
