}This technical report describes our evaluation of the Kinect depth sensor by Microsoft for Computer Vision applications. [] Key Method The basic technique of the depth sensor is to emit an infrared light pattern (with an IR laser diode) and calculate depth from the reflection of the light at different positions (using a traditional IR sensitive camera). In this report, we perform an extensive evaluation of the depth sensor and investigate issues such as 3D resolution and precision, structural noise, multi…

It is shown how Kinect's Block Matching implementation is limited by the dot density of the pattern, and a significant spatial bias is introduced as a result, and an efficient approach to estimate the disparity of each dot is proposed, allowing us to produce a point cloud with better spatial resolution than Block matching algorithms.
