Pairwise depth estimation

Configuration info for target appsources

The list of target applications and their description can be viewed in the vocabulary and in more detail, consumers.

Configuration is necessary to decide how many Jetsons shall participate in the Pairwise Depth Estimation (PDE) process, which consumer application will use the data, which Jetsons will form which pairs, how the roles are allocated, etc.

Required configuration information

• Number of pairs
• ID pool of participating Jetsons
• Consumer application

• Transfer channel parameters

• For each pair:

  1. ID of Jetson acting as master
  2. ID of Jetson acting as slave
• For each (participating) Jetson
  1. 2D Image stream destination (IP, port? File on disk? Web socket?)
  2. Depthmap stream destination (IP, port? File on disk? Web socket?)
  3. Camera intrinsic and extrinsic matrices (camera geometry info).

Configuration format

TBD.

Participating Jetsons

Any Jetson may participate, given that:

• It has a camera connected that can provide a sequence of 2D color images
• It is in the same LAN as other Jetsons and has ability to send data to the Internet
• All participating Jetsons' cameras record images of the same scene, at the same resolution
• In each pair, both Jetsons' cameras record images synchronously.

Consumer application

See consumers for details.
