I installed freenect2 from this link https://github.com/OpenKinect/libfreenect2.
When I run your setup it fails . How to change config.h file location beacuse it give config.h not exist.
Protonect example works I checked.
I am sorry for ssuch stupid question but I am a begineer.

Seems dup of #28. See the discussion and let me know if you find a solution.

Still nothing.
I tried python setup.py install.
I get this

dhruv@dh-7537:~$ python setup.py install
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 1, in
import _pyfreenect2
ImportError: No module named _pyfreenect2

Ok, seems dup of #9. Please see my comment #9 (comment). You are trying to install different package.

How to do this ?
You have set LIBFREENECT2_INSTALL_PREFIX environmental variable (default: /usr/local/).
What is the command.

To be sure, are you trying to install pylibfreenect2, not pyfreenect2?

[dhruvdesmond]

yes pylibfreenect2

For skeleton tracking using Kinect2. Any other library are also there for that. If Any please do suggest

Google it with "how to set environment variable" to learn how. In short, assuming you are on linux, then type the following command in your terminal:

export LIBFREENECT2_INSTALL_PREFIX=${your libfreenect install path}

[r9y9]

libfreenect2 doesn't support skeleton tracking. I'd suggest you to use the official Kinect-SDK or https://github.com/Kinect/PyKinect2.
