Rayrai Example: Depth Camera

Overview

Renders a linear depth texture from the Go1 depth camera and shows it in ImGui with a frustum overlay. The sensed points are projected back into the world and drawn as small instanced cubes. This is the recommended RGB/depth sensor path when rayrai is available. The active code path reads rendered depth from rayrai. The source also keeps a disabled (#if 0) World::captureDepthCamera block as a deterministic CPU fallback for headless ray-query use.

Target

CMake target: rayrai_depth_camera.

Run

Run the build-tree executable:

./build-examples/examples/rayrai_depth_camera

On Windows, run rayrai_depth_camera.exe instead. This example renders in process with rayrai and does not need rayrai_tcp_viewer.

Details

• Loads Go1 with the D455 module and fetches the depth sensor.
• Renders a linear depth texture and shows it in an ImGui window.
• Reads the rayrai depth buffer with raisin::Camera::getRawImage, flipped so rows run top to bottom like the sensor's own pixel layout.
• Projects the depth image into world-frame points with DepthCamera::depthToPointCloud and draws every fourth pixel in each direction as a small cube in one InstancedVisuals batch, shaded from yellow (near) to blue (far). Pixels without a hit (depth 0) are skipped. The batch is not detectable, so the depth camera never sees its own points.
• Keeps a disabled CPU World::captureDepthCamera fallback that returns depth, a segmentation object id and an optional hit point per pixel, a timestamp, and deterministic depth noise when rayrai rendering is not available.
• Places a sphere and a box in front of the camera using its pose.
