Capture aligned color and depth images via arbitrarily external trigger

Open YoshiyasuIzumi opened this issue 3 years ago • 7 comments

I get OAK-D Pro PoE! So I want to try to capture aligned color and depth images via arbitrarily external trigger. According to this comment, OAK-D Pro PoE might be able to capture images via arbitrarily external trigger. Are there any reference or hint for external trigger capturing?

Hello @YoshiyasuIzumi, We have some documentation about external trigger capturing here. Please let us know if you have additional questions (so we can also add additional info to these docs). Thanks, Erik

Thank you for sharing info! This feature is not yet officially released right? I'll look into it then if I have question, I'll let you know. Thanks!

@YoshiyasuIzumi Yep, correct. You would need to use multi_cam_support branch for the ColorCamera's setExternalTrigger() function. Thanks, Erik

@Erol444 Sorry for my delay. I checked out to "multi_cam_support". I tried "setExternalTrigger" by uncommenting line 155 in "tests/cam_test.py". That script provide color image stream on a window named "rgb". After I provide 5V trigger, then the two white window which are named left and right are showed up. Is this expected behavior? Please find attached log.txt. Thank you.

@Erol444 Is there any advice or hint to try arbitrary camera trigger? Thanks!

@Erol444 @alex-luxonis I've tried OAK-D Pro PoE with "python gen2-syncing/host-frame-sync.py -vv -hw ext" in this. I want to trigger color and depth bursting images by an arbitrarily trigger. To do that, I want to configure rgb camera bursting multiple images by trigger. But we couldn't setExternalTrigger for IMX378, right? Do you have advice to bursting color (and depth) image by trigger?

@Erol444 @alex-luxonis Is this OAK-D Pro PoE with OV9782 plans to support setExternalTrigger for color image sensor?
