Depth Camera D435
2.5 Stereo Vision Depth Technology Overview
The Intel® RealSense™ depth camera D400 series uses stereo vision to calculate
depth. The stereo vision implementation consists of a left imager, right imager, and an
optional infrared projector. The infrared projector projects non-visible static IR pattern
to improve depth accuracy in scenes with low texture. The left and right imagers
capture the scene and sends imager data to the depth imaging processor, which
calculates depth values for each pixel in the image by correlating points on the left
image to the right image and via shift between a point on the Left image and the
Right image. The depth pixel values are processed to generate a depth frame.
Subsequent depth frames create a depth video stream.
