I'm curious why you are referring to 'Kinect'. And because I also agree that the website needs a lot of work to make it more obvious of what the software can actually do, I was wondering if you could answer me this:

Can their software measure depth and height? As in, if I take a 3D picture of an object, can it tell me the dimensions. As in, can this thing give me a computer model of a 3d object on my screen?

We are referring the Microsoft Azure Kinect DK depth sensor. https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/kinect-dk/

No, our system doesn't measure object dimensions. It provides the ability to capture a real-world scene and stream it for remote playback in which the viewer has the ability to control navigation around the scene.
