DepthCameraProto Image Scale

Hi all,

Just trying to find out what scale the depthImage in the DepthCameraProto is supposedly set to.

I can’t seem to find the information anywhere.

Is each pixel simply the depth value in meters?

Can someone let me know what the scale is/where I can go for more information?

I would like to know this information as well. I have not found the answer either.

Hi,

I found this in the documentation:

Outgoing messages

depth [DepthCameraProto]: Publishers The converted depth in meters

So it looks like its in meters. I found it here:
https://docs.nvidia.com/isaac/isaac/doc/component_api.html#isaac-perception-disparitytodepth

Excellent and well found! Thanks!

As a suggestion for future documentation, it would be good if that information were available within the description of the DepthCameraProto here ([url]https://docs.nvidia.com/isaac/isaac/doc/message_api.html#depthcameraproto[/url]) if it is standard to have depth in meters for this type of proto.
