Replace incorrect terms "depth" and "ir"

MccartyADI opened this issue · comments

We prefer to use the more accurate and explicit terminology "radial_depth" and "active_brightness", we previously used "depth" and this confused a lot of people because they expected a flattened depthmap bit the output is actual radial depth. Similarly the AB or active brightness is preferred over IR to avoid confusion. I have an update for the SDK to address this but it looks like the terms are also present in the NXP target.

If you have an update for this I'm assigning you. What do you mean the terms are present in the NXP target? Do you mean they are in the SDK or in the linux driver?

it appears via protobuf that a list of supported formats comes from target, maybe that's not true? Specifically "ir" , "depth", "xyz", etc. Want to change all references from active "ir" to "active_brightness" and "depth" to "radial_depth" to match our documentation and avoid confusion.
