They aren't officially EOLing the stereo cameras yet, but their assurances about how long they'll remain in production have been very hand-wavey.

Does FLIR actually have a stereo solution? Back when they were Point Grey they sold the Bumblebee, but all of the stereo processing was done on the host machine.

Yeah, I guess that's obsolete too. My experience with stereo is that there's so much work in calibration and ensuring you get reliable correlation results between regions from the two cameras that plug-and-play solutions are very hard.

I have a D435 and it's 100% plug and play. It works very reliably. You can recalibrate it by pointing it at a wall, but I found it wasn't ever necessary.
