Trying to grab images w/ the Percept Vision system (out of box) and we're unable to get the camera to focus properly. Does anyone know how focus is managed, or what is the working distance? It says 50cm above, but that feels really far. I've attached some images of what we're able to capture via the live view, at a working distance of ~30mm. 220153-percept-coax-unfocused.png220231-percept-efang-unfocused.png

    Hello @Derek Xu We need to check if the product works for distances less than 50 cm of vision.

    Sensors and Visual Indicators

    Sony IMX219 Camera sensor with 6P Lens
    Resolution: 8MP at 30FPS, Distance: 50 cm - infinity
    FoV: 120-degrees diagonal, Color: Wide Dynamic Range, Fixed Focus Rolling Shutter

    Reference: Azure Percept Vision datasheet

    May I know the scenario or use case for such low distance camera focus?
    You may ping me on teams channel for further clarification!
