"The amplitude data delivers a scene similar to a gray-value image of the observed scene. The difference is that an intensity image would represent the world observed without light which is actively emitted by the IR LED of your Nano. The amplitude image shows the world in the way it looks as if there was no background light, but only the IR LED light of your Nano. That means, the amplitude data always delivers you a 2D image of the observed scene even if you turn out the light or operate under weak illumination conditions. So the amplitude data is something similar to a super-robust 2D-image which is not impacted by the ambient light conditions."

That sounds very interesting. Be interested to see how ar_pose handled that image.
