Abstract

This book offers a number of points of interest. The first is a gentle introduction to the operation of CW ToF cameras and of the Kinect™, the two currently most popular imaging instruments for dynamic scenes capture. The presentation is general enough to apply to the foreseeable evolution of their technologies. This is particularly true for the Kinect™ since Microsoft is very active both in the field of light coding systems, to which the first generation Kinect™ belongs, and in the field of ToF cameras.
