D435 and LiDAR

September 17, 2020 00:41

Hi, I´m planning in buying a intel D435 camera for an autonomous navigation project, the thing is that the LiDAR that we are using has a infrared laser, and the D435 has a IR imager, I wanted to know if this would affect the image of the D435 camera

The 400 Series cameras do not experience interference between themselves and other 400 Series cameras but can interfere with non-RealSense cameras that use IR (for example, interfering with an IR camera built into a laptop).

The interference may be a matter of proximity to the 400 Series camera, as the camera has been used successfully with lidar on a robotic boat project called Roboat. On that boat, the lidar is elevated at the top of the boat and there is a skirt of RealSense cameras at the bottom of it.

The link below states that Roboats are using Velodyne VLP16 lidar and the RealSense D435 depth camera.
