Abstract

Commercially available depth sensing devices are pri- marily designed for domains that are either macroscopic, or static. We develop a solution for fast microscale 3D re- construction, using off-the-shelf components. By the addi- tion of lenses, precise calibration of camera internals and positioning, and development of bespoke software, we turn an infrared depth sensor designed for human-scale motion and object detection into a device with mm-level accuracy capable of recording at up to 30Hz.
