title: Getting Depth of other objects Kinect
body: <p>I'm a newbie in kinect programming, i am working on a ball tracking using kinect and opencv..we all know that kinect provides Depth data, and with the code below:</p>
  
  <pre><code>DepthImagePoint righthandDepthPoint = 
      sensor.CoordinateMapper.MapSkeletonPointToDepthPoint
      (
          me.Joints[JointType.HandRight].Position, 
          DepthImageFormat.Resolution640x480Fps30
      );
  
  double rightdepthmeters = (righthandDepthPoint.Depth);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>using this, I am able to get the depth of a right hand, using the function <code>MapSkeletonPointToDepthPoint()</code> by specifing the jointtype.. </p>
  
  <p>Is it possible to get the depth of other objects by specifying in the image where?
  given the coordinate..I want to get the depth of the object in that coordinate?</p>
