API for checking its device.

RyanLee

I hope to check its model information with python API. Such as distinguish whether i am working on with OAK-D Pro W(OV9782) or OAK-D Pro W(IMX378). We hope to know our device information as much as we can with API.
We also would like check OAK-D PoE or OAK-D pro PoE too.

Best regards,
Ryan.

Hi RyanLee
I think this example code will help:

import depthai as dai
from typing import List

print('Searching for all available devices...\n')
# Query all available devices (USB and POE OAK cameras)
infos: List[dai.DeviceInfo] = dai.DeviceBootloader.getAllAvailableDevices()

if len(infos) == 0:
    raise Exception("DepthAI couldn't find any available OAK device!")


for info in infos:
    # Converts enum eg. 'XLinkDeviceState.X_LINK_UNBOOTED' to 'UNBOOTED'
    state = str(info.state).split('X_LINK_')[1]

    print(f"Found device '{info.name}', MxId: '{info.mxid}', State: '{state}'")


# Connect to a specific device. We will just take the first one
print(f"\nBooting the first available camera ({infos[0].name})...")
with dai.Device(dai.Pipeline(), infos[0], usb2Mode=False) as device:
    print("Available camera sensors: ", device.getCameraSensorNames())
    calib = device.readCalibration()
    eeprom = calib.getEepromData()
    print(f"Product name: {eeprom.productName}, board name {eeprom.boardName}")

We will also add it to depthai-python (and docs) as well.
Thanks, Erik
