OAK-D Absolute Depth Precision

erik Thank you!!!

I wanted to just follow up on this, I am using the code given here:
(RGB, DEPT, CONFIDENCE aligned.py)
https://github.com/luxonis/depthai-python/blob/main/examples/StereoDepth/rgb_depth_aligned.py

Essentially I would need to take the disparity output and apply the formula:
depth=441.25∗7.5/disparity(pixel)
to calculate the depth??

Please answer this as I have been stuck on this for past 3 days and my head has been noodling up everday.

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!!!

Regards,
Mamoon

Hi MamoonIsmailKhalid ,
If you have 7.5cm baseline distance and 441 [pixels] focal length then yes, that's the correct formula Otherwise, I would strongly suggest using depth output instead of calculating it yourself on the host.
Thanks, Erik

How would one extract the depth data directly? Any code examples you can refer me to??I am using the depth data to extract depth information and to overlay it on the output of 2D pose estimation (Google Mediapie) to recosntruct a 3D pose of the key points extracted from Google mediapipe

Thank you for your help and prompt responses! !

Hi MamoonIsmailKhalid,
You can extract depth data directly with depthai.node.StereoDepth.depth (reference to docs). One example which might help you, compares manual depth calculation (the formula you have been using above) to directly accessing depth trough ".depth" attribute.
Hope this helps.

jakaskerl THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I will try that approach and post here if that solved my porblem. But I really appreciate your guidance already

afsana Can you please share your code for measuring the depth of the object.
thanks

erik can you please provide me the github link or code link to get the depth of the object

Check examples under Spatial detection.

Thanks,
Jaka

hi @erik can we pass grayscale frame to the blob yolov5 model for detection using the color camera? if yes, how?

Note: We want blob model to process the detections on the grayscale frame instead of the rgb frame using the color camera.
