This research presents a method to enhance the accuracy of Kinect’s depth data. The enhanced accuracy is especially useful for triangular mesh reconstruction. Performing such a reconstruction directly from Kinect’s data is erroneous. We show that using a spatial filtering technique can help to reduce such errors considerably. We further apply such a technique for human surface reconstruction in order to assist doctors in a hospital’s burn care unit. Body surface area is estimated by Heron’s formula. Kinect calibration is also documented in this work.
