Utilize the Stereolabs API in full

[jruths]

The stereolabs API has lots of useful built in functionality. This task is about itemizing the options that it provides, figuring out if we want to use them, and pulling them into our stack.

To get started, talk with @MtGuerenS

Hey Justin, What functionality are you looking to pull into our stack?

@MtGuerenS @taetkyle Part of this task is really to summarize what can the stereolabs API do - what steps can we offload to this API. One concrete thing is that I believe the API has some mechanism to help:

1. Calibrate the 4 cameras relative to each other, and
2. Stitch the 4 cameras into a single image

Those would be a great place to start.

02/17/2025 Update:

• Status: Research the function that the zed API can do, running the zed built-in function for stitching four cameras

• Next Steps: Fix the two errors that I got by running the Zed 360 function, and run the function without any problem. Running the Zed camera using python script by utilizing API.

• Projected Completion: Feb 24th

• Update: I learned that the calibration is for calibrating a single camera. From the Zed 360, I learned that it provides human detection in 360 using four Zed cameras. However, I figured out that only one of the cameras is working properly for the Zed 360 function, so I ran a camera status analysis and found two errors: one indicates the camera is running, even though it is not running, and the other direct the error in AI sector.
