R200 SDK fails to initialize

[Zack_D_]

Today I received the Intel RealSense R200 3D camera development kit. I have attempted to run the included samples, however only some of them work.

I am currently running Windows 10 64 bit with an i5 4460 processor, and utilizing a USB 3.0 connection, which should satisfy the requirements for the device.

R200 Camera Driver: 2.0.3.39488

SDK: Build Number: 6.0.21.6598

The R200 is being run in the default configuration.

I have compiled the C++ samples using Visual Studio Community 2015. Some of the projects complain that they cannot include "afxres.h", but will compile once I point them to said file located in WinDDK.

All of the projects will run, but most will quit after failing to initialize the PXCSenseManager. These projects include FF_Hands3DViewer and FF_3DSeg.

Other projects will fail after a call to ScenePerceptionController's get() function is false. These projects include RF_MeasurementSP.

Other sample projects will work correctly, such as DF_BlobViewer, DF_Projection, or DF_FaceTracking.

FF_ObjectTracking also works with 2D images (3D objects is untested), but the projected axis' were inconsistent and incorrect.

I also attempted to run the sample scenes included in the Unity Package, using Unity 5. Only the Sample6 - Point Cloud scene was able to run, the others reported a "Unable to initialize all modalities" and did nothing.

I am posting this in the hopes that someone with more knowledge of the R200 SDK will be able to shed some light on the issue. I think it has something to do with Scene Perception, but I will continue to experiment.

Hi Zack,

Not all of the samples in the RSSDK will work with the R200 camera. Only those shown under Common Samples and R200 Samples will work with the R200 camera. For the Common Samples, please note that not all features are available when you're using the R200.

Hope this helps,

Bryan

Hi Bryan,

I'm having similar issues with some R200 applications. It seems that none of the samples that use Scene Perception will run. The command prompts will open and read:

"RF_AugmentedRealitySP: Starts."

or

"RF_ScenePerception: Starts.

RF_ScenePerception: being configured..."

And nothing else. When I close the command prompt it crashes. This includes: RF_AugmentedRealitySP.exe, RF_MeasurementSP.exe, RF_ScenePerception.exe, and RF_ScenePerceptionSimple.exe

Meanwhile all of the Enhanced Photo samples will run, but most of the functions display an error at the bottom such as:

"Error performing Enhance Depth operation"

This includes RF_DepthBlendEP.exe, RF_EnhancedPhotography.exe, RF_MotionEffectEP.exe, and RF_SegmentationEP.exe

For some reason RF_TrackingEV.exe works fine as does the Measure, Depth Enhance, and Paste On Plane functions in RF_EnhancedPhotography.exe.

Samples like 3D scanning, face tracking, projection, and camera viewer all work fine as well. I recieved the camera on friday, installed the latest firmware and sdk, and I'm running Windows 8.1 64 bit.

Please let me know if there is more information I can provide, thanks!

I'm guessing this has something to do with opencl 1.2, since scene perception, advanced photography and videography all require it.

However I have the latest graphics drivers (for a Geforce 750m) and have verified that opencl 1.2 is installed.

I've tested it on another windows 8.1 machine and the examples run fine. Both machines meet all of the required specs.

Hey Sam M. :: I've followed the exact same steps as you. I'm facing the exact same issues you outlined in your post.

Do you have any idea as to how the examples worked fine on the other computer? What was different on that machine? Did you have drivers for both F200 and R200 installed in either of the machines which caused it to work / not work?

Please share your thoughts. It might help us figure out the problem.
