Summary

How to use filters to improve the quality of the depth images

Description

How can I make sure that I don't have noise on my depth image and how can I upgrade the quality on Intel® RealSense™ D415?

Resolution

Please check the Post-Processing example, which adds additional filters over your depth stream in order to make the depth measurements more accurate.
The filters used are:

  • Decimation (Intelligently reduces the resolution of a depth frame)
  • Disparity (Performs transformation between depth and disparity domains and it is applicable for stereo-based depth sensors only)
  • Spatial (Applies edge-preserving smoothing of depth data.)
  • Temporal (Filters depth data by looking into previous frames.) 

Another way to improve the depth accuracy is to use texture for the environment.
