LIPSedge DL vs DL400 ToF cameras: depth resolution, RGB resolution and RGB frame rate

Asked as: “How do the LIPSedge DL and DL400 compare on depth resolution, RGB resolution and RGB frame rate?”

Answered by the Rapidflare agent

Here's how the two LIPSedge ToF cameras compare on those three specs:

SpecLIPSedge DLLIPSedge DL400
Depth output resolution640×480 (default output; 320×240 native)320×240 (native QVGA)
RGB output resolution1920×10802592×1944
RGB max frame rate30 fps10 fps

Depth resolution. The DL outputs depth at 640×480 by default (its native sensor depth is 320×240), while the DL400's native QVGA depth output is 320×240. Both share the same 30 fps maximum depth frame rate. lips-hci.com +1lips-hci.com ↗“640x480@30 defaultdepth output,320x240@30 native depth”lips-hci.com ↗“NativeQVGA@30 isexplicitly320x240@30”

RGB resolution. The DL400's maximum RGB output is 2592×1944, notably higher than the DL's 1920×1080 maximum. lips-hci.com +1lips-hci.com ↗“RGB1920x1080@30 maximumoutput”lips-hci.com ↗“Maximum RGB output2592x1944@10fps”

RGB frame rate. The trade-off: the DL400 tops out at 10 fps for RGB, whereas the DL reaches 30 fps at its 1080p maximum. lips-hci.com +1lips-hci.com ↗“camera.max_image_output_resolution_frame_rate_fps=30 fps”lips-hci.com ↗“camera.max_image_output_resolution_frame_rate_fps=10 fps”

In short: choose the DL for higher depth resolution and faster RGB; choose the DL400 when you need higher-resolution still RGB capture and can work with QVGA depth at 10 fps RGB.
