zed-isaac-sim
ISAAC Sim integration for ZED SDK.
The ZED camera extension streams your virtual ZED camera data to the ZED SDK.
Compatibility
Major versions of the ZED camera extension will follow major versions of Isaac Sim.
Please find the correct extension version compatible with your Isaac Sim version:
- Versions 1.X.X are compatible with Isaac Sim 2023.X.X.
- Versions 2.X.X are compatible with Isaac Sim 4.0
Getting started
To start using the ZED Camera extension in Isaac Sim, we recommend using our Getting started with Isaac Sim guide from our online documentation first.
Adding the 3D model of the ZED
Navigate to this extension's folder in the content browser, you can drag and drop the zed_x.usd under data into your stage.
Starting the data stream
To enable the streaming in Isaac sim, add the ZED Camera Omnigraph node to an Action graph, connect your camera to it and press play.
Parameters
You can configure the streamer properties in the Property panel on the right:
- Serial number: this field allows you identify the virtual camera you are using. It has no functional effect and can be left to the default value. This field can be useful when using multiple camera and you need to identify each one.
- Streaming port: Defines which port is used for streaming. It must be an even number.
- Use system time: when set to true, the streamer assigns the latest system time to the images that are sent to the SDK. If set to false, the streamer only sets the first timestamp to system time and then increments the later timestamps by simulation time.
- ZED Camera prim: this parameter should be set to the ZED X camera prim in the stage as shown in the picture above.
Connecting to the ZED SDK
Once you press play in the simulation, you can connect the virtual camera to the ZED SDK via the streaming interface.
