erik Hi izumi , I apologize for the delay, I had to double-check with the team about it. We are still working on a better dot projector, we have since gone through 2 revisions (that weren't an improvement). I believe the current ETA is end of Q4 for the (new revision of) new projector, we will soon receive initial samples. It should be sufficient, as the pattern would be more random. It might also be that the current projector is sufficient (from eg. 25cm onwards), but we haven't tested it yet. Thoughts?
izumi Hi erik , Thank you for sharing updates. Can you share the progress of the projector upgrading?
erik Hi @izumi , We have received multiple different projectors (from different vendors), but none were significantly better. We are still in the process of evaluating different ones.
erik Hi @izumi , We will likely be implementing new projects to our RVC4-based cameras first (which is the main priority), and then update the design for current OAK cameras.
izumi Hi jakaskerl , Thank you for your quick response! That is a little bit sad news to me because this articles said 2024 June was original plan. I'll wait next gen camera!
izumi Hi @jakaskerl , I'm very interested in improvement of depth reliability on OAK4-D Pro. While waiting for it, can we expect any improvement on this topic with OAK-D Pro? Because this issue is very critical for my application…
jakaskerl izumi OAK4-D pro is fitted with a different dot projector (Himax), so this shouldn't be a problem here. Thanks, Jaka
