File Camera

The Zivid file camera is an option that allows users to test the output of the zivid camera without actually having a physical camera at hand. This feature uses a previously acquired point cloud. The benefits include being able to view first hand the accuracy and output of of the point cloud with some flexibility into adjusting certain filters even without a camera present. It also allows testing Zivid API without having a physical camera.
