C# (.NET)

These examples demonstrate how to use the .NET wrapper with the Intel RealSense SDK.
They demonstrate how to easily use the SDK to include code snippets that access the camera into your applications.

Hello World

Here is a minimal depth application written in C#:

var pipe = new Pipeline();
pipe.Start();

while (true)
{
    using (var frames = pipe.WaitForFrames())
    using (var depth = frames.DepthFrame)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("The camera is pointing at an object " +
            depth.GetDistance(depth.Width / 2, depth.Height / 2) + " meters away\t");

        Console.SetCursorPosition(0, 0);
    }
}

Note:

Since the SDK is holding-on to native hardware resources, it is critical to make sure you deterministically dispose of objects, especially those derived from Frame. Without releasing resources explicitly the Garbage Collector will not keep-up with new frames being allocated.
