ABSTRACT
In particular, the depth sensor is comprised by an IR camera and an IR dotted pattern projector, and uses a computer vision technology developed by PrimeSense. It has an approximately range of 30 cm to 6 m, and it allows building depth maps of 11-bit depth resolution. Open-source drivers (such as Libfreenect and Avin2/OpenNI) as well as the Microsoft Kinect SDK allow this product to be connected to a computer and to be used in many other applications other than gaming, such as: robotics, surveillance systems, intra-operatory medical imaging systems, accessibility, among others.
