Hi guys, I found the depth was divided into many layers when I generate pointcloud, the problem also happened after calculating the depth. In addition, I found this also happened in official pointcloud video, anyone know how to make it smooth plz? Many thanks Leo [upl-image-preview url=https://discuss.luxonis.com/assets/files/2024-10-29/1730191345-865514-202402.png] [upl-image-preview url=https://discuss.luxonis.com/assets/files/2024-10-29/1730191346-483497-202401.png] [upl-image-preview url=https://discuss.luxonis.com/assets/files/2024-10-29/1730191475-412727-202403.png]

@"jakaskerl"#p26861 Thank you Jaka, I'll try it

@"leonardo"#p26872 Some things to add: - we will be getting out an improved depth hopefully soon with a lot less discretization, as the filters will run on 16bit disparity values instead of 8 - the video you have linked uses TOF depth, which has a higher depth resolution than stereo - hence the tighter layering. Thanks, Jaka

@"jakaskerl"#p26891 looking forward to that！thank you!

Depth Layers problem

You can't really make it smooth because the depth has limiter precision. You can try enabling subpixel and increasing number of fractional bits, but performance will take a big hit.
