Hello,

I currently have a ZED X Mini HDR with a Jetson Orin NX 8GB. We are using the latest major version of the SDK. When I retrieve images directly on the Jetson, I get very low latency (about 30 ms). However, when I enable streaming and send the images to the PC, the latency increases significantly (about 120 ms). The stream is running at 30 FPS, but I still find the latency quite high.

Is this expected behavior, or is there a way to reduce this latency?

Yes, this is the expected behavior of the Local Streaming module of the ZED SDK.
