On some of my cameras I frequently get a “Camera not detected” error (running hub application). I need to manually restart the zed box to get it working again. Any nice fix for this? Full error:
[2023/10/10, 07:10:47] [custom_edge_body_tracking_service_1] [ERROR] Camera initialization error : CAMERA NOT DETECTED
[Error] [2023/10/10, 07:11:14] Application Custom Edge Body Tracking execution was interrupted.
Hi,
The solution would be to catch this error in the code and use sl::Camera::reboot to restart the camera.
Know that this function sometimes lack reliability depending on your USB controller, but it will get a great improvement in the next patch (4.0.8).
Hi,
Not sure if that would help, as even if I stop the application and reboot the camera through the hub, I still get the error.
It will. Stopping the application does not reset your USB capabilities. For that you need to power cycle the device (unplug / replug), or run sl::Camera::reboot()
Won’t sl::Camera::reboot do the same as hitting the reboot button in the hub? Because that does not help unfortunately.
No, it’s not the same. And sl::rebootCamera will be even better in 4.0.8.
You can also connect to the device with the remote console and run the app on /usr/local/sl_hub/bin/sl_reboot_camera
When I run /usr/local/sl_hub/bin/sl_reboot_camera I get:
./sl_reboot_camera: symbol lookup error: ./sl_reboot_camera: undefined symbol: _ZN2sl6ZEDmcuC1EbttbNSt7__cxx1112basic_stringIcSt11char_traitsIcESaIcEEE
Hi,
This is a mismatch of version between ZED SDK and Hub.
Anyway, if you use ZED SDK >= 4.0.8, you can use sl::rebootCamera instead, or it’s python equivalent. Also you should not need like you did with previous versions.
Okay, please provide step-by-step instructions on how to run sl::rebootCamera or the python equivalent. Running get_python_api.py resulted in error:

This may be due to installing on ZED SDK 4.1? In any case, please provide step-by-step on how to run the command. Thank you
Hi,
Indeed the python wrapper is not released for 4.1 yet.
You can only use the early-access 4.1 that I sent you with C++.
Hi,
I got /usr/local/sl_hub/bin/sl_reboot_camera working. Thanks
