Sending/Receiving SDK with ZED 2i

[jdesmarais]

Hi everyone,

I’m working with a ZED 2i Stereo Camera that needs to be installed at location X, while the processing server(VVVV) will be located at location Y. The two locations are connected via network but it’s not possible to extend the USB.

My idea is to place a small Jetson device near the camera, connect the ZED 2i via USB, and then use the ZED SDK streaming (sender/receiver) functionality to transmit the data over the network to the remote server.

I’ll be doing some custom development, but most of the documentation I’m finding references ZED X, which makes me wonder whether the streaming workflow also supports USB cameras like the ZED 2i as a source.

Has anyone already implemented a similar setup or can confirm that ZED SDK streaming works with a ZED 2i over USB?

Thanks!

This is indeed a working solution.
You can read more in the online documentation:

This is not correct. The ZED Local Streaming module works with all the camera models.
