hi Dave, i'm glad you find the freenect module useful. it was a long time ago i was working with it.
> be clipped compared to the output viewed in freenect-glview. Does this > seem sensible? as i remember this was based on the equation on the ros wiki: http://www.ros.org/wiki/kinect_node/Calibration which was only calculated for 10 bits, that's why it is clipped. does it work for you for 11 bits? i see that others are using this equation for the whole range, but i might have gotten wrong values above 1024. although i don't remember exactly. the other kinect depth calibration equation commonly referred is by Stephane Magnenat: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/openkinect/AxNRhG_TPHg/IZ9bYKyUiukJ it is in the code commented out, but i think the other one gave better results, although this one is supposed to work better. more information on the openkinect site at: http://openkinect.org/wiki/Imaging_Information i hope you find some of the equations above working. looking forward to the results of your skater tracking project. best, gabor
