<abstract>
<p>Today range cameras are widespread low-cost sensors based on two different principles of operation: we can distinguish between
Structured Light (SL) range cameras (Kinect v1, Structure Sensor, ...) and Time Of Flight (ToF) range cameras (Kinect v2, ...). Both
the types are easy to use 3D scanners, able to reconstruct dense point clouds at high frame rate. However the depth maps obtained
are often noisy and not enough accurate, therefore it is generally essential to improve their quality. Standard RGB cameras can be a
valuable solution to solve such issue. The aim of this paper is therefore to evaluate the integration feasibility of these two different 3D
modelling techniques, characterized by complementary features and based on standard low-cost sensors.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
For this purpose, a 3D model of a DUPLO&lt;sup&gt;TM&lt;/sup&gt; bricks construction was reconstructed both with the Kinect v2 range camera and by
processing one stereo pair acquired with a Canon Eos 1200D DSLR camera. The scale of the photgrammetric model was retrieved
from the coordinates measured by Kinect v2. The preliminary results are encouraging and show that the foreseen integration could lead
to an higher metric accuracy and a major level of completeness with respect to that obtained by using only separated techniques.</p>
