RealSense D415 Is it possible to retrieve a BGR8 image from the two infrared sensors?

For our application we would like to retrieve the BGR8 images from both infrared sensors.

Preferably at a resolution of 1920x1080, but 1280x720 will due as well.

Hi Kamille,

 

The D415 camera has two IR depth sensors, and 1 RGB sensor. Only the left depth sensor is able to also return a color stream, however only in black and white, and is able to return the image at a maximum resolution of 1280x720, at 6,15 or 30 fps.

 

 

The D400 Data Sheets (page 54, table 4.2) have more information about this:

Hi Kamille,

 

I apologize for not providing the correct information in my last post.

 

The D415 camera has two IR depth sensors, and 1 RGB sensor. Only the left depth sensor is able to return a color stream*, and is able to return the image at a maximum resolution of 1280x720 at 6,15, or 30 fps.

 

 

* Previously I had said that the depth sensor was able to stream only in grayscale, but that was incorrect since the D415 camera uses color sensors for depth. So you would be able to retrieve BGR8 images only from the left infrared sensor. For more information regarding this topic, and instructions on how to remove the projector pattern when streaming color on the infrared sensor, refer to this link (Page 7, Section 10)
