Setup Kinect Libraries on Mac

If you are using Mac 10.8

Follow the steps in the Usage and Install setcion:

https://github.com/totakke/openni-formula

append --devel for all the brew install command

If the brew install sensor-kinect fails,

1. download the binary

   https://github.com/avin2/SensorKinect/downloads

2. compile and install

    sudo ./install.sh
   

3. link the niReg

   you should see the following error when you manually compile and install sensor-kinect:

    registering module 'libXnDeviceSensorV2KM.dylib' with OpenNI..../install.sh: line 111: /usr/bin/niReg: No such file or directory
   

   link the command line niReg so that the manual install can run:

    sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/niReg /usr/bin/niReg
   

   The main reason for doing this is because the niReg is setup when you brew install openni, so the path that the install.sh (of sensor-kinect) expecting does not match.

4. After installing everything, run the sample in:

    /usr/local/Cellar/openni/unstable-1.5.4.0/sample/Bin/x64-Release
    ./Sample-NiSimpleViewer
