Re: The kinect on the Robot
Advantages?
The Kinect uses patterned light and a camera to produce a depth map. If environmental factors don't interfere with it, it gives similar data to very expensive LIDAR sensors. If used appropriately, this is great to use to simplify the image processing and make independent measurements that can improve the interpretation of the vision code.
Of course this is only helpful if you make it reliable and solve all of the issues listed in the previous posts.
