This is the code I have written so far:

#declare Index = 0;
#declare offset_index = 30;

#while(Index < 90)
  difference {

   sphere {
           <1, 0, -6>, 0.5
           finish {
                   ambient 0.1
                   diffuse 0.6
           }
           pigment { NeonPink }
   }
  // Cutting plane
  #declare rgb_coeff = 255;
  plane {
   // http://www.povray.org/documentation/view/3.6.0/297/
   <0, 0, 1>, -7 // This will vary depening on the index
   pigment {
                  rgb <Index/rgb_coeff, Index/rgb_coeff, Index/rgb_coeff>
          }
         translate <0, 0, 1>
  }


  }  // end difference
        #declare Index = Index + offset_index;
#end // end while-loop



What I am aiming to get is to cut the same scene multiple times at different
depths and getting the cut scene (the scene is cut using a plane). Then I want
to take all the cut scenes (from the one cut to its farthest point to the one
cut at its closest point) and overlap all of them.
I should then get a depth map with different grays like this one:

How do I go about getting the different cut scenes and put all of them
together?

Thank you very much in advance.
