Generate point cloud from existing stereo image pair

Software

I currently have a stereo image pair from a ZED camera (in .png format), with its camera parameters known. Is it possible to using ZED SDK to generate point cloud from the stereo pair ‘offline’, without camera connected?

Thank you.

Hi @LincolnZh
I’m sorry, but the ZED SDK does not allow to use of external stereo pairs to extract depth information.
You can use OpenCV for example to extract the disparity map and then the depth map and the point cloud, even if the final result cannot be the same as the result obtained by the optimized stereo matching algorithms of the ZED SDK:
