Reading .raw file into Python numpy array

[salilpDev]

Hello,

I took some snapshots in the RealSense Viewer, which gave a PNG, CSV, and a .raw file. How do I read the .raw file in python so that the depth values will be in some sort of numpy array?

I'm using a D455F camera. All of these are from .bag videos, so if there is a way to save certain frames from a bag and read their data that would be helpful as well

Thanks,
Sal

Hi @salilpDev A discussion at the link below about reading a .raw file with Python may be a helpful reference. It contains links to all the information that is currently available about the subject.

In regard to extracting frames from a bag, there are a couple of tools. The RealSense SDK's rs-convert tool can extract frames to a range of file formats, whilst the rs_bag2image tool created by a RealSense user can extract to jpg and png image files.

These tools will extract all the frames of a bag to individual files rather than isolating specific frames though.

Hi @salilpDev Do you require further assistance with this case, please? Thanks!
