Quick Start

This program connects by serial number and requests a rectified image and depth map from the same frame:

from time import sleep
from xensesdk import Sensor


def main():
    sensor = Sensor.create("OP000064")
    try:
        # Captures continuously until you press Ctrl+C to stop
        while True:
            rectify, depth = sensor.selectSensorInfo(
                Sensor.OutputType.Rectify,
                Sensor.OutputType.Depth,
            )
            if rectify is not None:
                print("rectify:", rectify.shape, rectify.dtype)
            if depth is not None:
                print("depth:", depth.shape, depth.dtype)
            sleep(0.02)
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        # Exit gracefully after Ctrl+C
        print("Capture stopped")
    finally:
        # Release the sensor on normal exit or interruption
        sensor.release()


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Select a source

Sensor.create(0)                              # local camera index
Sensor.create("OP000064")                     # sensor serial number
Sensor.create("OP000064", mac_addr="...")     # sensor on a compute unit
Sensor.create("OP000064", infer_mode="small") # select an inference mode
Sensor.create(0, disable_infer=True)          # verify acquisition only

Do not open the same sensor repeatedly from multiple threads. Use finally to release camera handles and inference workers in long-running applications.
