3D camera from SoftKinetic

P.S.: Do you have access to the raw IR image data?

[renepaulsen]

Thanks, I will look into it!

No, I only have access to the processed data i.e. a table, where each value is a representation of the depth of the pixel in question.

Also, the sensor should be calibrated, so the intrinsic calibration parameters should be located somewhere!

Best regards,

Will the pin hole model also work on surfaces with a curvature? 
For instance if I want to measure the cirkumference of a cylinder?

The camera model is simply a way to map the 3d coordinate onto a 2d image plane. If you account for the distortion, the principal point offset and focal length in both directions, accurate measurements can be performed.

Measuring the circumference (even half circumference) of a cylinder would be impossible with one static 3d camera because of the occlusions and not covering the neccessary measuring area.
