Is my sensor broken?

ElieZ — Wed, 20 Feb 2019 07:12:24 GMT

I have two RealSense D435 sensors and am getting very different output from each one. One has a nice smooth depth image, but the other has a lot of distortion and holes and a basically unusable image.

I tried plugging them one at a time, resetting all the post-processing on them, changing USB ports / cables, and it doesn't seem to fix the issue.

I'm attaching a screenshot of the two views side-by-side here, and I'm wondering if one of them is defective, if there's anything I can do to fix it, or if I should just return it.

Thanks,

Elie

There was a case in 2018 that was very similar to your own. Two D435s were being used to observe the same area of a room. One gave a good image and the other one gave a bad image.

Intel support agent Alexandra offered advice on the case, which is linked to below.

Ok, thanks @MartyG

I'll take a look at the recommended calibration tool when I'm back at the office, and post any progress here.

Neither proposed solution ended up working (switching on High Density or resetting the sensor to Gold Factory Settings). I think we'll try to get a replacement as it definitely seems like there is something wrong with the device.
