Abstract :
The following paper evaluates a time-of-flight 3D camera with regards to its usability for RoboCup rescue. This includes an evaluation of the influence of outer conditions to the camera data, as well as its usage for automatic 3D mapping by scan registration. A color camera is calibrated with respect to the 3D camera in order to gain colored texture information for the acquired measurements.
