Abstract
RGB-D sensor is a very useful sensor for mobile robot. KINECT v1 is one of the RGB-D sensors. And it is measured the depth information by light cording method. KINECT v1 is developed to use in the room. The light cording method is affected by sunlight. Under the sunlight, this sensor loses the infrared pattern and it cannot calculate the depth information. Then we propose the using the polarized filter to find the infrared pattern. It uses to decrease the reflected light on the digital camera. In some experiments results show that the KINECT v1 is output the depth information under the sunshine.
