Detection and Tracking of People and Moving Objects

With the great success that came with uploading of my recent work with the Kinect, I've decided to also put up my Bachelor's thesis (which was actually available but well hidden out there already).
This work is however not based on a widely available system as the Kinect, but the general idea and software should be applicable to many generic setups including a standard 2D laser scanner with adequate scan rate. The project goal was the development of a plug-in for the Mobotware system used at the university, and the final result proved satisfactory in fulfilling the specified demands.
My Kinect Datasheet

During 3 weeks of March this year I had some time to spare for a University project of my own choosing. As i have been eager to try out the Microsoft Kinect sensor (for anything but its intended purpose), it was an obvious choice for my project.
In my hunt for a more specific subject involving the Kinect, I became increasingly annoyed with the lack of specifications on sensor-usage of the device. Soon I realized that even a very basic datasheet could prove to be very useful for anyone wanting to get involved with the Kinect.
