This sounds really promising for making 3d scans. Wouldn't it be cool to be able to get a 3d scan of something and then print it out in a MakerBot?<BR>
<BR>
I took a look at the kinecthacks.com link -- I couldn't find out there how it works, or why they call it "RGB-Demo". Is it using Red-Green-Blue light to somehow? Or, does "RGB" in this case stand for something different?<BR>

But I have no idea where to <BR>> go from there. I originally planned on mounting it on a roomba and <BR>> combining the roomba's odometry with the sensor output to reconstruct <BR>> the rooms. But then I saw this:<BR>> <BR>> http://www.kinecthacks.com/kinect-accurate-scene-reconstruction-rgb-demo-v0-5-0/<BR>> <BR>> Which is neater, as it's just a guy standing around waving the kinect by <BR>> hand, and his software is joining like surfaces in order to make a 3d <BR>> model. But there's more in line with what I originally intended, with <BR>> code, from these guys:<BR>> <BR>> http://ic2020.ca/<BR>> <BR>> I was curious if people were still working with the kinect, and there <BR>> was a good time to meet and help me play catchup. I'm going to play <BR>> with the ROS framework which has a competing free set of USB drivers <BR>> (the NI vs the libfreekinect) and built in visualization framework.<BR>> _______________________________________________<BR>> Noisebridge-discuss mailing list<BR>> Noisebridge-discuss@lists.noisebridge.net<BR>> https://www.noisebridge.net/mailman/listinfo/noisebridge-discuss<BR> </body>
