yak with kinect v2

Hi,

Sounds great work.
Could you confirm or comment whether this package can subscribe to topics from and rgbd camera and build models? and How?

Many thanks

If you are using ROS take a look at yak_ros, which builds off Yak to provide ROS nodes that subscribe to RGB-D image topics and fuse the depth images into the TSDF volume.

You will need to separately calibrate the Kinect v2 to determine the camera matrix and distortion coefficients for the depth images. yak_ros provides a function that integrates dense point clouds into the volume, which may be useful as well.

thank you for your reply. I will test this and post an update here.
