Description
Hey there,
So I've been using the default kinect addon provided by openframeworks and my code works just fine on my windows, pi2 and linux machies. On the raspberry pi2 however the tilt of kinect does not go below 0 degrees. So on other machines it goes between -30 to +30 degrees. Where as on the Pi2 it goes only between 0 and +30 degrees.
I tested my Pi2 with the kinect example provided ( the one that looks like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-y3xKrbfRKs) and yet i see the same problem so I don't think it's my code

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with the Kinect example on a Raspberry Pi 2 and compare its tilt behavior with Windows or Linux. Trace the default Kinect addon's tilt-control path and verify that the Pi 2 supports the full -30 to +30 degree range without breaking the existing example behavior.
