Inference on own data

[jb455]

Hi,
I'm trying to run inference using the pretrained model on my own data which is gathered from a RealSense camera.
I've updated run_example.py as suggested, updating rgb and depth paths and setting the camera parameters using camera intrinsics values obtained from the librealsense API, but the output normal.png is not as expected:

I have checked my depth data; when I deproject to a point cloud it looks fine.

My question:

I save my depth data as raw uint16 values stored as a binary file, then read this back to a np array where you use cv2.imread - ie, depth_image = np.fromfile("depthdata.bin", dtype="short").reshape(height, width). Are raw depth values like this ok or should I apply a disparity map or something first before passing to SNE? There's no such step for your sample data but I don't know what steps you take to create the sample depth image from your raw depth data.

Thanks for sharing this project and for any help you can offer :)

Another thought - how noisy can the depth data be? If it's trained on synthetic data, are the depth values assumed to be 'perfect' or are bumps and holes forgiven by the model?
