💖 PCL_OPENNI_IMAGE 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the PCL_OPENNI_IMAGE(1) page — yes that's a User Commands manual, and yes it's lowkey iconic. sit down, grab a boba, we're gonna talk about the PCL OpenNI Image Viewer/Recorder. ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

pcl_openni_image — literally just pcl_openni_image, no cap 🫶

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

PCL OpenNI Image Viewer/Recorder. that's the whole vibe. it views, it records, it serves. 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the usage line, verbatim, don't @ me:

usage: pcl_openni_image [(<device_id> [-visualize | -imagemode <mode>] |
[-depthmode <mode>] | [-depthformat <format>] | -l [<device_id>]| -h |
--help)]

and the options, one by one, because we do NOT skip:

• -h | --help — shows this help. main character behaviour fr.
• -l — list all available devices. so you know what you're working with 👑
• -buf X — use a buffer size of X frames (default: 322). yes, 322, that's the number, don't come for me.
• -visualize 0/1 — turn the visualization off/on.

⚠️ WARNING bestie: when visualization is disabled, data writing is enabled by default! so if you turn the visuals off, it starts writing — that's a whole situation, be aware. 😭

• -l <device-id> — list all available modes for specified device.

and here's the tea on device_id 🌈:

• it may be #1, #2, ... for the first, second etc device in the list, or
• bus@address for the device connected to a specific usb-bus / address combination, or
• <serial-number>
