Generates a greyscale luminance image from a depth source, usually a Depth Camera / Kinect Source

Method #

Generates a greyscale luminance image from a depth source, usually a Depth Camera / Kinect Source or a Colour And Depth Source node.

Attributes

These properties control the core behaviours of the node.

Parameter	Details
Preview In Viewport	Preview the generated image as an overlay in the viewport. Off : No preview is generated. RGBA : Preview the image blended with alpha in the viewport. RGB : Preview the colour channels in the viewport. Alpha : Preview the alpha channel in the viewport. PIP : Preview the image blended with alpha in the viewport, in a smaller picture in picture display, on top of the existing content.
Apply PostFX Before Alpha Image Input (Legacy)	When enabled, the alpha input image is applied after the postfx pass, overwriting any effects the postfx would have applied to the alpha channel.
Near Plane	The near clip plane. Depth values less than this are masked out.
Far Plane	The far clip plane. Depth values greater than this are masked out.
Falloff	Control the falloff of the output image.
Invert	Invert the value output for the depth image.
Depth Range	What range of depth to use. Kinect v1 : Use the depth range of the Kinect v1. Kinect v2 : Use the depth range of the Kinect v2. RAW Depth : Use the raw depth data.
