Abstract

Depth sensors are able to calculate the distance of the points in the image from themselves. Depth cameras implement both RGB and depth sensors to return visual and spatial information in the output data. This paper describes how depth data from the depth sensor are obtained and the experimental setup for the measurements of indoor spaces. Also, an accuracy test of the sensor is performed. Finally, the results are discussed and some examples of applications are proposed.
