depthai_demo.py user interface

Timm

Hi,

I just set up my first OAK-D Lite camera on a Raspberry Pi 4, and the depthai_demo.py user interface looks nothing like the screenshots in the "First steps with DepthAI" guide. There are two windows, one showing the color camera output and another one showing a depth map, but almost all of the configuration options are missing (e.g. there seems to be no way to change the camera properties from the GUI). Is this normal?

Thank you in advance for any information.

Hi Timm
The RPI doesn’t work well with heavier GUIs/etc. so we disable it on the Pi to save CPU and installation complexity.

Thanks,

Hi Jaka,

Thanks for your response! I added the line

args.guiType = "qt"

before

s.runDemo(args)

at the end of depthai_demo.py to reenable the heavy GUI. I haven't yet tested all functions, but so far seems to be working well.

Cheers,
Tim
