I hope to develop a program to get a kinect depth image and convert it into 3D point cloud as my final year project.

I have to write a program to save those depth images into bin directory of the project. But I'm unable to convert those images to 3d point cloud.

If anyone has an idea about how to implement this or any working projects for that please help me.
