I see, will try that later.
Any ideas about how to get a good calibration? The best option coming
to my mind would be to find some material that swallows IR and make a
checkerboard pattern out of that that shows up in the depth image as
well as the normal camera image. Haven't found a material reliably
doing that yet though.
