rs-infrared Sample

Overview

This sample demonstrates how to use C API to stream infrared data from both left and right IR cameras and prints a simple text-based representation of the IR images, by breaking them into pixel regions and approximating the intensity levels.

Key Points

• Demonstrates how to enumerate and differentiate between IR1 (left) and IR2 (right) streams
• Shows how to configure and start infrared streaming with Y8 format
• Provides text-based visualization of IR intensity levels
• Handles multiple IR streams from stereo cameras

Expected Output

The program will display two text-based representations side by side:

• Left IR camera view
• Right IR camera view

Each view shows intensity levels using ASCII characters where brighter characters represent higher IR intensity.
