Building Handy GUI program for Kinect with MATLAB





With simple GUI building skills, you can easily make handy program with MATLAB(R2015b). You can do :
  • Visualize streaming Color and Depth image.
  • Control depth mode(Default/Near) and elevation angle.
  • Simultaneously align color with depth image.
  • Live 3D Reconstruction with Point cloud stitching

The highlight thing in this demo is live 3D reconstruction. User can easily combine multiple point clouds to reconstruct a 3D scene using ICP(Iterative Closest Point) algorithm. It can be used in various application like develop 3D models of objects or build 3D world maps for SLAM(Simultaneous Localization And Mapping).

This is all for my recent work on Kinect. Any opinions to discuss are welcome.
Thanks for reading.
