Crazyflie with Kinect not working

Hi,

I have been trying to make crazyflie hover at one place until I give another command.

I used given kInect code.
If I increased thrust value (thrust_sp = thrust+50000), it flies up but very quickly out of the frame.
If I decreased it, it does not even lift up from the ground.

How do I acheive what is shown in one of bitcraze videos on Kinect?

The Kinect implementation is a proof-of-concept and needs some tuning to work. The offset has to be tuned, have a look at this post for more info,

Hi, Im working on a slightly different approach in my (rather limited) spare time. It uses depth image segmentation rather than color image segmentation but it will be a while until its ready to be released... If some one has time I could walk them through the code and they could port it to the default cfclient. It shouldnt be too hard. Ill post in a new thread this evening.

Here is an (uncut) video of my second test.
Here is the code.
