Method 1: Docker

Pull the latest docker image

$ docker pull hedgehao/lips-openni2-sdk

Run with following command to bridge USB and GUI between docker and host.

$ docker run -it --privileged -v /dev/bus/usb/:/dev/bus/usb --device=/dev/dri --group-add video -v /tmp/.X11-unix/:/tmp/.X11-unix -e "DISPLAY=$DISPLAY" hedgehao/lips-openni2-sdk

Method 2: Install Manually
