To activate the tool, right-click on the directory and click Run. You can also open a
terminal and type ./NiViewer. A window will now open on your PC with the depth data
streamed real time in the top left corner of your screen, alongside with cameras
infrared data on the top left corner.

Press “p” on your keyboard to activate pointer mode. An interactive color / distance
scale will now open on the bottom of your screen to represent the distance value of the
red pointer. This allows to target a specific pixel in the depth image and obtain its
distance measure in cm (displayed under “pointer value” field).

Press “1” on your keyboard to display cameras depth image in full screen.

Press “?” on your keyboard to display all shortcut keys and their corresponding
