IInfraredFrame Interface

Represents a frame that provides view of the scene that looks just like a black and white photograph, but is actively lit, so brightness is consistent regardless of ___location and room brightness.

Syntax

interface IInfraredFrame : public IUnknown

Members

IInfraredFrame has the following members.

Methods

Name Description
AccessUnderlyingBuffer Gets a pointer to the infrared frame data.
CopyFrameDataToArray Copies the infrared frame data to an unsigned short array.
get_FrameDescription Gets the description of the infrared frame.
get_InfraredFrameSource Gets the source of the infrared frame.
get_RelativeTime Gets the source of the infrared frame.

Remarks

The infrared frame is great for computer vision algorithms where texture is important, such as facial recognition. Data is stored as 16-bit unsigned integers. The infrared frame is also great for green screening, tracking reflective markers, and filtering out low-return (and therefore jittery) depth pixels. Note that the infrared frame is derived from the same sensor as depth, so the images are perfectly aligned. For example, the infrared pixel at row 5 col 9 goes with the depth pixel at row 5 col 9.
