The ZED SDK is organized into several modules, each providing specific functionalities and features to help developers create powerful applications with their ZED cameras. These modules cover a wide range of capabilities, from basic camera control to advanced computer vision and AI features.

Module NameDescription
CameraProvides functions for controlling the ZED camera, including initialization, configuration, and data acquisition. This module allows developers to access the camera’s sensors and retrieve images, depth maps, and other sensor data.
SensorsProvides access to the ZED camera’s sensor data, including IMU, Temperature, and other environmental sensors. This module allows developers to integrate sensor data into their applications for enhanced functionality.
Depth SensingProvides functions for capturing and processing depth information from the ZED camera. This module enables developers to create applications that require 3D perception, such as obstacle detection, 3D mapping, and augmented reality.
Positional TrackingProvides functions for tracking the position and orientation of the ZED camera in 3D space. This module is essential for applications that require accurate localization and mapping, such as robotics, AR/VR, and autonomous navigation.
Global LocalizationProvides functions for global localization using the ZED camera and GNSS sensors. This module allows developers to create applications that require global positioning and mapping, such as outdoor navigation and large-scale mapping.
Spatial MappingProvides functions for creating and managing 3D spatial maps using the ZED camera. This module enables developers to create applications that require detailed 3D environment understanding, such as indoor mapping, object recognition, and AR/VR.
Object DetectionProvides functions for detecting and tracking objects in the ZED camera’s field of view. This module enables developers to create applications that require object recognition and tracking, such as surveillance, retail analytics, and human-computer interaction.
Body TrackingProvides functions for tracking human bodies and their movements using the ZED camera. This module is ideal for applications that require human pose estimation, such as fitness tracking, gaming, and interactive installations.
FusionProvides functions for fusing data from multiple sensors, including the ZED camera and external sensors. This module allows developers to create applications that require sensor fusion for enhanced perception and understanding of the environment.
