I have recently purchased a Zed2i camera. I am trying to use the camera in Touchdesigner but it’s not working as expected.
It gives me an error that the camera is not found. I already have the latest zed SDK installed on my PC but it is still not working in Touchdeigner. I have the latest version of Touchdesigner installed.
Hi,
Can you use the ZED Camera with the ZED SDK directly, without Touch Designer?
If so, I’d recommend contacting the team from TD, in their forum for example.
Best regards,

I have tried it with unity as well, its not working, it gives me an error camera not found same as touchdesigner
Ok then,
Can you run the ZED Diagnostic tool available in the ZED SDK installation folder (in Tools/), save the final report and share it with me please?

hi, it has started to work. There was an issue with the USB 3.0 port.
Can you tell me, how many cameras can i connect to one PC? I have seven in total.
It depends on your pc specs but I’d say 3 or 4.
To connect more cameras, you can add PCIe expansion cards (https://support.stereolabs.com/hc/en-us/articles/207678815-How-do-I-use-multiple-ZED-cameras-on-one-computer).
The USB bandwidth is indeed a bottleneck but you will also probably have issues running 7 instances of the ZED SDK smoothly, at a decent frame rate, especially if you plan to use modules of the ZED SDK that require some computational power to run.
