How to switch to Wide angle FOV on Oak D Pro W POE camera?

I’m using an OAK-D Pro W PoE and noticed that the RGB camera feed appears to have a narrower FOV than expected for the “W” (wide) model. It seems like undistortion might be applied somewhere, reducing the effective FOV.

Setup details:

Device: OAK-D Pro W PoE
Using: DepthAI pipeline with color camera + left/right H.264 streams
Observation: Left/right (stereo) feeds show wider FOV than RGB

Questions:

How can I ensure the RGB stream uses the full wide-angle FOV?
Is there a way to disable undistortion or reapply distortion to recover the original view?
Are there specific DepthAI API settings that affect this behavior?

Thanks for any pointers!

I'm not so sure what viewer does underneath but

akumat Observation: Left/right (stereo) feeds show wider FOV than RGB

That is expected since the FOV for the center camera is still much smaller than the FOV of the L and R. Only on 97 variant are they the same. I can't really tell if the images are undistorted, but it looks to me like they aren't.

Thanks,

Thank you for your reply. That is exactly what happened. Did not realize we had 2 variants at our lab and that created confusion. Thanks again!
