Install on Windows

Open PowerShell and run the command below to install the latest version of the Rokoko Device SDK.

iwr -useb 'https://sdk-downloads.rokoko.com/latest/install-device-sdk.ps1' | iex

Note

We recommend using the latest version of PowerShell Core over the built-in Windows PowerShell for the best compatibility and latest features.

The install script will download the latest release of the SDK, extract it, and add the SDK’s bin directory to your PATH environment variable. This allows you to run the device driver and other SDK tools from any terminal window.

The SDK is installed in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Rokoko Device SDK by default, but you can change this by setting the ROKOKO_SDK_HOME environment variable to a custom path before running the install script.

After the first time you install the SDK, you may need to restart your terminal to ensure that the rkk_device_driver executable is available in your PATH.

Verify

After installation, verify that the Rokoko Device SDK is installed correctly by checking that you can run the bundled device driver from the command line:

rkk_device_driver --version

This should result in the version number of the installed Rokoko Device driver being printed to the console. If you see an error, please check the installation steps and try again.

Updates

To update the SDK in the future, simply run the same install command again. The install script will handle downloading and installing the latest version, and will replace the existing installation while preserving your configuration and settings.
