[vtkusers] Build depth map of a 3D model

[Jana Sefcikova]

Hello,
I would try use vtkWindowToImageFilter to make screenshot of depth map.
Here is an example
http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples/Cxx/Utilities/Screenshot

Instead of
# windowToImageFilter->SetInputBufferTypeToRGBA();
try
# windowToImageFilter->SetInputBufferTypeToZBuffer();

I am new in vtk, this is only idea.

J.
