How to measure distance with F200??

I've tried face tracking, 3D scanning(not working as I expected) and the things in Realsense SDK browser, but didn't find the function of taking a photo to measure distance as shown on the Ads. Is there anybody know this issue?

More over, as I am fresh with realsense f200, so if there is a possible way to get the width and height(in real world) of a 3D scan object??

Thanks ahead.

You can't 'officially' use the measure distance function on the F200 but it's fairly easy to roll your own by obtaining the vertices then using a bit of pythagoras to get the distance between two points in millimetres.

You can just use the raw 3D data points to get the distance.

Remember that the distances are measured from the sensor plane, perpendicular to it, instead of a line through the optical center.

Thanks for ur reply.

I'm still on my way to fully understand Realsense, and I thought what you suggest would be a great solution to my problem. So, it would be of great help if  you could  give me some more exact infos and tutorials??
