Compiling librealsense-persontracking for TX2

[RLee36]

librealsense-persontracking is not available on the arm repo for TX2.

How might I be able to obtain the source code for cross-compiling? Or compiling an arm version for that matter?

I believe that the package to look for to get source could would be librealsense-persontracking-dev, the 'dev' part indicating that it is source code rather than a built binary. I could not find a way to obtain this file other than installing the RealSense SDK For Linux though.

In that SDK for the RealSense ZR300 camera, the librealsense-persontracking-dev file is installed along with the object rcognition and SLAM files using this instruction:

$ sudo apt install librealsense-object-recognition-dev librealsense-persontracking-dev librealsense-slam-dev

Hey, could you advice on how I should have the arm version for that package compiled? From getting the source code to compiling (instructions) included. I'd be fine if you would even point me to a tutorial elsewhere.

I do not personally have experience of compiling Librealsense with ARM but others have done it successfully, including getting a Jetson TX1 working with Librealsense. Someone made a forked version of the old Librealsense with ARM support for their TX1, so that may be a good place for you to research.
