Luxonis OAK-D Pro-PoE Fixed-Focus 12MP IMX378 Fixed & 2xOV9282 PoE IR

The OAK-D Pro PoE is an upgraded version of OAK-D PoE, featuring an IR laser dot projector and IR illumination LED (for “night vision”). It’s also smaller and lighter than the OAK-D PoE.

Both the Fixed-Focus and Auto-Focus variants have fixed-focus grayscale stereo cameras. The Auto-Focus vs. Fixed-Focus variants of OAK-D-Lite differ only in the 12.3 MP color camera. Fixed-Focus has the lens fixed in place mechanically and cannot move, whereas Auto-Focus has an electromagnet that controls the lens position dynamically.

• Auto-Focus can focus on objects dynamically, which is mainly useful for objects within 50cm of the device. Auto-focus cameras can also be manually set to a specific focus position utilizing our API.
• Fixed-Focus is recommended for heavy-vibration applications (e.g., drones, lawnmowers, bikes w/out suspension, etc. (see video)

Both Auto-Focus and Fixed-Focus can clearly see objects beyond 50 cm, working between 50 cm and infinity. Auto-Focus has the advantage that it can focus on objects as close as 10cm
