Hello, I was trying out an implementation of one of my toy problems, and found an error/bug. If I stand infront of the OAK-D running MobileNet with spatial detector, I get a difference in the calculated location based on how my arms are stretched. For example: (to reprodce this error) 1. Stand in front of the camera running spatial detection with our arms on the side. 2. Note the Z-axis dimension. 3. Raise either of your hands on the side. 4. (My asumptions is) The box on the spatial depthmap, now lies ouside of the chest region, and gives a value that is behind the actual human label. 5. Then try it with both arms. The error shouldn't be as darastic. I have no concrete idea as to why this is happening, or if this can be fixed at all even. But any insite into this would be helpful. Setup: - Ubuntu 20.04 (On VMWare Workstation) - Python 3.7 - OAK-D (running MobileNet) Also, happy weekend. Revert when possible. (Possible soultion: Limit the size of the ROI to be a percentage of the size of the bounding-boxes?) Regards, Alfred.

Hello @"tarocal"#p1263 , both of the times your assumptions were correct, great thinking:) So to avoid this (depth taking into account the background) you should decrease the ROI size. This is done by decreasing the scaling factor, eg. to 0.2: `spatialDetectionNetwork.setBoundingBoxScaleFactor(0.2)`. If you run [this example](https://docs.luxonis.com/projects/api/en/latest/samples/spatial_mobilenet/#rgb-mobilenetssd-with-spatial-data), you can see the white rectangle on the depth frame; this is the depth "area" which will be taken into account when calculating the final distance (Z coordinate). Hope this helps! \- Erik

Depth error in MobileNet

Hello,

I was trying out an implementation of one of my toy problems, and found an error/bug.
If I stand infront of the OAK-D running MobileNet with spatial detector, I get a difference in the calculated location based on how my arms are stretched.

For example: (to reprodce this error)

Stand in front of the camera running spatial detection with our arms on the side.
Note the Z-axis dimension.
Raise either of your hands on the side.
(My asumptions is) The box on the spatial depthmap, now lies ouside of the chest region, and gives a value that is behind the actual human label.
Then try it with both arms. The error shouldn't be as darastic.

I have no concrete idea as to why this is happening, or if this can be fixed at all even. But any insite into this would be helpful.

Setup:

Ubuntu 20.04 (On VMWare Workstation)
Python 3.7
OAK-D (running MobileNet)

Also, happy weekend. Revert when possible.

(Possible soultion: Limit the size of the ROI to be a percentage of the size of the bounding-boxes?)
