SDK sample hands_viewer doesn't work properly

[Viktor_B_]

Hello,

I have a laptop with integrated non-3D webcams. When I run sample hands_viewer, I get message "Init Failed". In debugger I see that method PXCSenseManager::Init() return status PXC_STATUS_ITEM_UNAVAILABLE. What does this mean? What item is unavailable?

RealSense Camera is needed to provide the depth image that is required for the algorithms called in this sample code (and to enable most of the SDK features) to run.

However you may try some features of the SDK like facial emotions using your regular RGB camera.

Hello PUBUDU,

Thank you for dispelling my doubts.

I thought so. But in the documentation I have not met the explicit requirements for this feature. Maybe I didn't read carefully.

Viktor,

You are right, may be we should make it explicit on what works with regular web cam and what specifically needs our 3d cam. Thanks for your valuable feedback on documentation, it always helps to know customers input.

Dear all,

I have got a Senz3D camera but this function "if(psm->Init() != PXC_STATUS_NO_ERROR) return 2;" inside 2_RawDataCapture tutorial project always returns 2.

I cannot understand why.

Thank you very much,

Davide

Hi Davide,

The Senz3D camera is not supported.

Please refer to the Intel Realsense SDK home page for more details
