Unable to create Instance of "Runtime" class in Kinect SDK beta 2

Question

Hi!

I have installed  "Kinect for Windows SDK Beta 2" in VS2010 and created a form in WPF in framework 4.0  and now I have added the reference

"Microsoft.Kinect" but now I am not able to create the instance for Runtime class.

Here I am getting compile time error;

Runtime nui= new Runtime();

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

First, I'd recommend that you upgrade from Beta 2 to the V1.0 release of the Kinect for Windows SDK. You'll find that's the version that most Kinect for Windows developers are now using, and you'll be more readily able to get support for it. Download it from http://kinectforwindows.com.

You not only need a reference to the Microsoft.Kinect assembly, but you also need a "using" declaration in your code, typically near the top of your .cs file:

using Microsoft.Kinect;

Hi!

I have installed "Kinect SDK V1.0" and also used "Using Microsoft.Kinect;" but the problem is not fixed.

Answer 4

The Runtime Class is exist in the beta2Sdk

and you were use the "Microsoft.Research.Kinect.dll" with following using statements

Using Microsoft.Research.Kinect.Nui
Using Microsoft.Research.Kinect.Audio

and now after installing the Kinect SDK V1.0

you must use the new classes of the "Microsoft.Kinect.dll" with the following using statement

Using Microsoft.Kinect
