### Description
The bounding box 3D annotator behaves odd with distorted camera… s. At first I was having problems with the PoseWriter without exporting obstacles data when I updated my cameras to ones with distortion models attached. After testing, I found out the bounding box 3D annotator was not giving any data or was rarely producing data for only 1 asset if it was close enough to the center of the image. So I did a very basic test of enabling the 3D bounging boxes on the UI and there the problem appears inmediately.
I made this video using the standalone example at `standalone_examples/api/isaacsim.sensors.camera/camera_opencv_pinhole.py`

In that video, you can see I see clearl the 2d bounding box for that red box which moves when I move the box but the 3d bounding box never appears.
I made another video with my use case:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/779e990f-da00-4eb6-b10e-a32a9c6229e8
In this other video, I move around one cylinder and when it's in the very center of the image it gets detected. You can see there is an odd behavior while I move it.
So I did another test. I left the cylinder in a position where it is detected and ran the PoseWriter. Amont the exported data there are the projection of the bounding box corners on the camera image. So I picked those points and wrote a script to plot them on an empty image of the same resolution as the camera and this is what I got:
<img width="1497" height="927" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/cec390b9-f767-4ce4-a8f5-b71460aef0ed" />
So apparently there is a difference between what I am seeing on the UI or the viewport sensor output window and the data that the annotator is processing.
I checked out the known issues and the open issues and I haven't found anything related to this so far. This is easily reproducible using the standalone example I've shown above.
Let me know if I can be of any help!
