./build_linux_docker.sh
# `./build_linux_docker.sh  aarch64` for arm64

More information about how to use Docker, please refer to README.md.

Run the Sample

After you build the Orbbec SDK, you can find the executable file in the directory OrbbecSDK-dev/build/win_XX/bin or OrbbecSDK-dev/build/linux_XX/bin.

Environment Setup

Windows

Metadata registration

For windows,you need to register the metadata associated with frames (this includes things like timestamps and other information about the video frame).

• Metadata registration follow this:/scripts/env_setup/obsensor_metadata_win10.md

Linux

Please install it using the following commands:/scripts/env_setup/install_udev_rules.sh

cd OrbbecSDK-dev/scripts/env_setup
sudo chmod +x ./install_udev_rules.sh
sudo ./install_udev_rules.sh
sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && udevadm trigger

Connect to the camera

If the camera needs to be powered on, plug in the power cable and connect the camera to the host using USB.

Running the sample

• Enter the bin directory , open the terminal (power shell for windows), and run the example

cd bin
.\ob_XXX  #  .\ob_XXX.exe for windows
