We use hybrid classification-regression forests to learn how to map from near infrared intensity images to absolute‚ metric depth in real-time. We demonstrate a variety of humancomputer interaction and capture scenarios. Experiments show an accuracy that outperforms a conventional light fall-off baseline‚ and
