get_distance pyrealsense2 error!!

[NeuroGalaxy]

I am using pyrealsense2 library for Intel realsense camera d435. I was trying to get the distance to an object using the function depth.get_distance().

However I am getting this following error: "get_distance(): incompatible function arguments. The following argument types are supported:

  1. (self: pyrealsense2.pyrealsense2.depth_frame, x: int, y: int) -> float

Invoked with: <pyrealsense2.pyrealsense2.depth_frame object at 0x0000017D60EC4A08>, 640.0, 360.0"

Please help if you know why this is happening.

Are you using the example program on the bottom of the front page of the Python wrapper, please?

An alternate approach to getting the distance to an object in Pyrealsense2 is with the 'distance_to-object' tutorial that Intel has published.
