Remarks

Android dense depth image format.

Each pixel is 16 bits, representing a depth ranging measurement from a depth camera or similar sensor. The 16-bit sample consists of a confidence value and the actual ranging measurement.

The confidence value is an estimate of correctness for this sample. It is encoded in the 3 most significant bits of the sample, with a value of 0 representing 100% confidence, a value of 1 representing 0% confidence, a value of 2 representing 1/7, a value of 3 representing 2/7, and so on.

As an example, the following sample extracts the range and confidence from the first pixel of a DEPTH16-format android.media.Image, and converts the confidence to a floating-point value between 0 and 1.f inclusive, with 1.f representing maximum confidence:

ShortBuffer shortDepthBuffer = img.getPlanes()[0].getBuffer().asShortBuffer();
               short depthSample = shortDepthBuffer.get()
               short depthRange = (short) (depthSample & 0x1FFF);
               short depthConfidence = (short) ((depthSample >> 13) & 0x7);
               float depthPercentage = depthConfidence == 0 ? 1.f : (depthConfidence - 1) / 7.f;

</p>

This format assumes <ul> <li>an even width</li> <li>an even height</li> <li>a horizontal stride multiple of 16 pixels</li> </ul>

y_size = stride * height

When produced by a camera, the units for the range are millimeters.
