Installation Mac

If you are running on intel for mac you will download pre-built binaries. If you are running Apple Silicon the process will download dependency libraries from source.

Note: You will not be able to stream a connected Kinect on macOS.

Installation instructions do not include the Azure Kinect SDK as macOS is not yet supported by Azure Kinect SDK .
