Consumer Depth Cameras for Computer Vision
Description
Reviews / Votes
From the reviews:
"Consumer Depth Cameras for Computer Vision is among the first few written from a research point of view. It is based on research published in the Workshop on Consumer Depth Cameras and includes some of the notable researchers in the field and the original team behind Kinect itself. It's an excellent resource for researchers working in computer vision and robotic vision or for students having knowledge of vision who wish to start working with Kinect. . highly recommend this book to any researcher of Kinect."
