  1. SLAM - youtube.com/watch?v=quGhaggn3cQ
  2. Camera placement in 3ds max of Kinect location.
  3. (Real world scale?) Is that possible? Does the kinect know how far away something actually is?
  4. Integration with Canon USB SDK so that a 5D could be remote controlled to fire off high resolution RGB data in sync.
  5. Multi-Kinect Auto-Matching. (I’m thinking like 2 Kinects on a 5’ Wide Bar with a 5D in the middle)

Thank you for your feedback!

  1. and 2) We’re currently working on SLAM and camera placement.

  2. I think the particles should be in real-world scale now. Please let us know if they’re incorrect.

  3. We’ll need to take a look at this.

  4. We were using a checkerboard in the overlapping field of view of the the two Kinects, but I’m not sure if that would work in your case. We’ll need to look into this further.

  1. I think it’s exactly double. We have a 6’ table but it’s coming out as about 150 units.

  1. Checkerboard would work. I just used an intern. :wink:

  2. Snapshot button to just capture the current point cloud as a still.

  1. Exposure lock of the RGB camera so that exposure and white-balance doesn’t change.

I could not reproduce this issue. Could you please tell us your units setup?

(Go to Customize->Units Setup… In the Units Setup dialog, I have: Display Unit Scale: Metric - Meters.
Click System Unit Setup button. In the System Unit Setup dialog, I have: 1 Unit = 1.0 Meters.)

“Generic Units”

Although I see that Max’s generic units are actually cm not inches. Weird.
