Kinect_calibration/technical. Description: Technical aspects of the Kinect device and its calibration Tutorial Level: ADVANCED Authors: Kurt Konolige, Patrick Mihelich Imager and projector placement The Kinect device has two cameras and one laser-based IR projector.

The figure below shows their placement on the device. This image is provided by iFixit. All the calibrations done below are based on IR and RGB images of chessboard patterns, using OpenCV's calibration routines. Depth calculation The IR camera and the IR projector form a stereo pair with a baseline of approximately 7.5 cm. Depth is calculated by triangulation against a known pattern from the projector. Disparity to depth relationship For a normal stereo system, the cameras are calibrated so that the rectified images are parallel and have corresponding horizontal lines. Z = b*f / d, The Kinect returns a raw disparity that is not normalized in this way, that is, a zero Kinect disparity does not correspond to infinite distance. Leap Motion.

The Kinect effect: how Harmonix mastered Dance Central's menus

Not only is the game great, but the smaller details like the way the menu system works are also superior to the other current Kinect offerings. Since gesture-based controls are such a new frontier, the developers at Harmonix had a difficult time creating an intuitive control scheme for navigating menus. The solution? Creating lots of prototypes and simply seeing what worked. The major problem for Harmonix was that, aside from that one scene in Minority Report, there weren't any real solid examples that the team could look at for inspiration.

The main goal was to create a menu system that didn't make players wish they were using a controller instead. Another early prototype featured a virtual scroll wheel, something along the lines of the big wheel from The Price Is Right. Things went on like this for around two months. All that, just to create a menu. The awesomeness of the Dance Central UI. Synapse for Kinect Introduction. Full Body 3D Scanning with 16 Kinect Sensors in an Automated Booth.

Suma, Belinda Lange, Skip Rizzo, David Krum, and Mark Bolas Project Email Address: faast@ict.usc.edu 32-bit(recommended for most users) 64-bit(for advanced users) Note from Evan Suma, the developer of FAAST: I have recently transitioned to a faculty position at USC, and unfortunately that means I have very limited time for further development of the toolkit.

You may also view our online video gallery, which contains videos that demonstrate FAAST’s capabilities, as well as interesting applications that use the toolkit. Have a Kinect for Windows v2? We have developed an experimental version of FAAST with support for the Kinect for Windows v2, available for download here (64-bit only). Recent News December 12, 2013 FAAST 1.2 has been released, adding compatibility for Windows 8. Summary FAAST is middleware to facilitate integration of full-body control with games and VR applications using either OpenNI or the Microsoft Kinect for Windows skeleton tracking software. E.
