zed-sdk

Why we included this project

If you are putting a depth or stereo camera into a real product, whether a mobile robot, an autonomous vehicle testbed, or a factory inspection rig, this repo is a practical place to start. It is the official companion to Stereolabs' ZED cameras and ships the SDK as runnable tutorials and samples, so you can move from your first image grab to depth maps, 3D point clouds, SLAM, and object and human pose detection in a few guided steps. The same perception pipeline runs on desktop GPUs and embedded Jetson boards, which lets you develop locally and then move to the edge. The newer custom depth mode even accepts disparity from your own stereo network and runs the rest of the pipeline on it. The samples cover day-to-day production needs like recording and multi-camera setups, so treat this as SDK glue and reference code to pair with your own application logic rather than a standalone tool.
