I was tasked with sending a live stream 3D video from the ZED camera to a Gear VR app. More accurately, I would need to process the ZED stream on the Jetson TX2 and send that over to a phone (Samsung Galaxy S8) and view it through the Gear VR headset. Don't ask me why I had to do this (I've been asking and haven't received any concrete answers ...). I'll update with the academic paper assoiciated with this project soon. Anyway, here's a brief description of all the equipment I used just in case.
- Gear VR - It's basically an oculus rift but completely powered by the phone. A compatible phone is plugged into the headset through USB type-C or by USB type-B and placed directly in front of the lens.
- ZED Camera - This is one beast of a camera, currently costing ~$400. It's actually two cameras, as it captures 2 images that are slightly offset from one another. This way, the ZED can do depth sensing, 3D mappin
