StereoPi Slim Edition

StereoPi Slim Edition - Perfect for DIY ninjas and those wanting to embed StereoPi in a tight space. This board is the same as the standard edition, but without all the bulky connectors - the Ethernet RJ45 jack, GPIO header, and dual USB Type-A connector have not been populated. To use this board, you will need your own Raspberry Pi Compute Module, cameras, camera ribbon cables, and power cable.

The board comes with two short power cables.

From spatially aware robots to drone livestreaming

StereoPi is an open source stereoscopic camera based on Raspberry Pi. It can capture, save, livestream, and process real-time stereoscopic video and images. StereoPi opens up countless possibilities in robotics, AR/VR, computer vision, drone instrumentation, panoramic video, and more.

StereoPi is easy to use with other familiar tools.

We’ve already made many demos of StereoPi integrating with other tools, including:

• YouTube: livestream 3D video over the Internet
• Oculus Go: livestream 3D video directly to a VR headset
• OpenCV: build real-time depth maps
• ROS: create a spatially aware robot
• Hugin: create 360° panoramic photos and videos
• Wifibroadcast: wirelessly livestream 3D video from a drone

Example Video & Photo

The above video was captured by running this simple command from a Raspbian terminal:

raspivid -3d sbs -w 1280 -h 480 -o 1.h264

Taking a stereoscopic image is just as easy using:

raspistill -3d sbs -w 1280 -h 480 -o 1.jpg
