Remarks

Android sparse depth point cloud format.

A variable-length list of 3D points plus a confidence value, with each point represented by four floats; first the X, Y, Z position coordinates, and then the confidence value.

The number of points is (size of the buffer in bytes) / 16.

The coordinate system and units of the position values depend on the source of the point cloud data. The confidence value is between 0.f and 1.f, inclusive, with 0 representing 0% confidence and 1.f representing 100% confidence in the measured position values.

As an example, the following code extracts the first depth point in a DEPTH_POINT_CLOUD format android.media.Image:

FloatBuffer floatDepthBuffer = img.getPlanes()[0].getBuffer().asFloatBuffer();
               float x = floatDepthBuffer.get();
               float y = floatDepthBuffer.get();
               float z = floatDepthBuffer.get();
               float confidence = floatDepthBuffer.get();

For camera devices that support the android.hardware.camera2.CameraCharacteristics#REQUEST_AVAILABLE_CAPABILITIES_DEPTH_OUTPUT DEPTH_OUTPUT capability, DEPTH_POINT_CLOUD coordinates have units of meters, and the coordinate system is defined by the camera's pose transforms: android.hardware.camera2.CameraCharacteristics#LENS_POSE_TRANSLATION and android.hardware.camera2.CameraCharacteristics#LENS_POSE_ROTATION. That means the origin is the optical center of the camera device, and the positive Z axis points along the camera's optical axis, toward the scene.
