1. Manually downloaded libsoudio and installed
2. Downloaded the k4a files and installed (from here)
3. Made a ros project and cloned the Azure demo project
4. rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -r -y

1. Manually downloaded libsoudio and installed
2. Downloaded the k4a files and installed (from here)
3. Made a ros workspace and cloned the Azure demo project
4. rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -r -y

If I just ignore this a colcon build the package, this is the result:

Starting >>> azure_kinect_ros_driver
--- stderr: azure_kinect_ros_driver

K4A Libs: k4a::k4a;k4a::k4arecord

K4A Install Needed: FALSE

Finished <<< azure_kinect_ros_driver [6.39s]

Doesn't seem a terrible output but it still doesn't work.

I also followed the instructions here and created the /etc/udev/rules.d/99-k4a.rules file with the following content:

# Bus 002 Device 116: ID 045e:097a Microsoft Corp.  - Generic Superspeed USB Hub
# Bus 001 Device 015: ID 045e:097b Microsoft Corp.  - Generic USB Hub

But k4aviewer gives me this error:

I have been trying to configure my Azure Kinect to be used in ROS2 Humble but I haven't had success. Here are a few links I found with good information

Any help would be awesome!

Update (still not working)

Following the comments below (thank you)

1. Manually downloaded libsoudio and installed
2. Downloaded the k4a files and installed (see comment below)
3. Made a ros project and cloned the Azure demo project
4. rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -r -y

ERROR: the following packages/stacks could not have their rosdep keys resolved
