  New Features

  New recording pipeline

  • SVO or AVI recording can now be started with enableRecording() and stopped with stopRecording() without deleting the ZED camera object.
  • You can also record videos with depth and tracking enabled.
  • Use the record() function after a grab() call to save incoming images in your video file.

  New grayscale and raw image output

  • Grayscale images and raw (unrectified) images can now be retrieved using retrieveImage* functions.

  SDK

  New positional tracking matrix output

  • Besides the 4x4 Eigen matrix that contains the position and orientation of the camera, a new structure MotionPoseData that contains the rotation, translation and orientation (quaternion) of the camera can be retrieved. This quaternion can be used more easily in OpenGL and Unity applications.
