3D registration using inertial navigation system and Kinect for image-guided surgery

When 3d image registration using 2d image by hand-held scanner, the most important thing is pose estimation and object surface measure. The relationship between images is important to image registration. In this paper suggest 3d registration using Kinect and INS. The Kinect and INS are integrated on rigid body to improve the accuracy of estimate pose. It can complement the disadvantages of each sensor through the sensor fusion of INS and vision sensor position to make more precise estimates. Using purposed system can measure the three-dimensional shape of a variety of objects, and also can obtain an accurate image in a medical imaging applications which require precision application and apply in Image-guided surgery.
