      @Troi said in Stereo camera does not appear in Camera Calibrator Overlay:

      Hello, I am trying to calibrate the stereo camera using the instructions on the website (https://docs.modalai.com/calibrate-cameras/). I use the following command to start the calibration process:
      voxl-calibrate-camera stereo -l 0.04 -s 4x7

      I tried to view the calibration progress via the voxl-portal's Camera Calibrator Overlay. The Camera Calibrator Overlay option appears in the voxl-portal drop-down menu. However, the stereo view with overlay never appears.

      When I try to exit camera calibration (via Ctrl + C), the program hangs and I have to exit the terminal to stop the program.

      What should I do to solve the issue with the camera calibrator overlay and the stereo camera calibration?

      I am having the same issue, any help will be appreciated. @Troi How did you resolve this?

      @Alex-Kushleyev I initially tried using an LCD screen for the checkerboard, but the camera wasn't detecting it. Should I move the camera around when transitioning between boxes on the LCD screen?

      Afterward, I reverted to the physical checkerboard and moved slowly during calibration. Additionally, I switched to the stereo camera configuration (https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-camera-configs/#c-10-front-stereo-only-ov7251). Calibration completed successfully, and I was able to start the voxl-dfs-server (after renaming the intrinsics/extrinsics files to match the DFS configuration).

      However, I'm still not seeing valid output data in the VOXL Portal. Both the DFS server status and journal logs appear normal. Any idea what might be causing this?

      The orientation was labeled vertical in the extrinsics file, I updated it to horizontal since the cameras are mounted in that direction, I tried both.
