Calibration and rectification

mathi4378

Hi,

i am trying to get a depthmap, but unfortunately the object is very uniform and has little texture and therefore the depthmap does not work very well. Now my question is if I have to calibrate and rectify the camera if I use the OAK-D-PRO-W OV9782 or is the camera already calibrated?

Hi @mathi4378 , our cameras are factory calibrated, so you don't need to calibrate them yourself. But we still provide tools for calibration, if something went wrong (eg. device fell on the floor, or you opened the enclosure, in both cases you'd need to recalibrate the device).
Thanks, Erik

@eric-soderberg I tried to clone the Github repository but I cannot install the requirements depthai ==2.24.0.0 in PyCharm, can you help me with this as well? Is there a workaround since I would like to use Pycharm and do the calibration through it? Thanks for the help

Cloning the GitHub Repository

• Open PyCharm.
• Go to VCS > Get from Version Control.
• Paste the URL of the GitHub repository you want to clone and click Clone.
Setting Up the Python Environment in PyCharm

• In PyCharm, go to File > Settings > Project: > Python Interpreter.
• Click the gear icon and select Add Interpreter.
• Choose either a Virtualenv or Conda environment, depending on what you prefer. A virtual environment will help you manage dependencies specific to your project.
Installing depthai==2.24.0.0

• Open a terminal inside PyCharm or navigate to the terminal in your project directory.
• Install the specific version of DepthAI using:

pip install depthai==2.24.0.0

If you’re facing issues installing the exact version, you can try upgrading or downgrading the package manually. Sometimes PyCharm may not handle certain dependencies perfectly through its UI, but the terminal commands will work.

I tried with GPT before but nothing worked, I changed the version of depthai and it worked, thanks for the help
