-k4a-sys
--------
-A bingden wrapper for the Azure Kinect Sensor SDK, which works on both Linux and Windows.
-
-Vendors the compiled SDK libs from version 1.3.
-
-At the moment I have compiled the sdk on both Linux and Windows
-and added the `include`s and dynamic libraries by hand to the 
-`vendor` folder. It might be possible to compile libk4a from source in the future,
-but it looks time consuming.
-
-This is temporarily missing the `depthengine` library, my plan is to statically compile this into the lib soon.
-
-Raise an issue if you'd like dynamic linking, but since `k4a` is such
-a niche library, I think it's very convenient to have it statically compiled
-into the lib for now.
-
-I'm also planning on writing a safe Rust wrapper library, `k4a-rs` to allow Rust-idiomatic (not raw pointers!)
-access to the libraries. It will probably live in this repo and we'll move `k4a-sys` to a sub-directory here, the
-same way [`bzip2-rs` and `bzip2-sys`](https://github.com/alexcrichton/bzip2-rs) work.
-
-I think in the near future we'll remove bindgen from the list of dependencies and only run it every library update,
-that is, by hand/script instead of in the build.rs. This is because bindgen has ~60 dependencies, and should always
-generate the same output file anyways. (It's possible to make the output cross platform).
