We are interested in rendering of image by layers using Kinect. This is done using Kinect’s depth sensor. By using the depth sensor, we are able to detect the image in layers in term of distance. With that we are trying to separate the image into layers of different depth to carry out rendering. We already have the programs to split the image into layers and render in layers. By using the program that make use of depth image provided by Kinect, we are able to split the image into layers. By splitting the image into layers, we are able to render those layers. However, the depth image required must be in raw form. Many ways was tried to save the depth image in raw form. We manage to find a way to save the depth image in raw form. So by using the programs we already have we are able to achieve our objective, to render the image by layers.
