Adds the source device ID to ImgTransformation.
The device ID is stored directly on the transformation instead of in Extrinsics, because extrinsics are part of per-camera EEPROM calibration data. Storing device-level information there would duplicate it for every camera.
This PR also:
Serializes and deserializes the device ID.
Exposes it through the C++ and Python APIs.
Propagates it through rectification.
Prevents remapping and alignment between transformations with different known device IDs.
Treats an empty device ID as unknown for compatibility with older replay datasets.
Adds tests for serialization, equality, alignment, remapping, and replay compatibility.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Extrinsics now track an optional destination device ID.
    • Added coordinate-system compatibility checks for transformations.
    • Python bindings expose destination device IDs and compatibility validation.
    • Transformation metadata preserves device information during serialization.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Image remapping now rejects incompatible device or camera-coordinate transformations instead of processing invalid data.
    • Alignment checks correctly report incompatible coordinate systems.
    • Improved extrinsics comparisons and transformation validation.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds destination device IDs to extrinsics metadata, persists them through protobuf serialization, exposes compatibility checks in Python, and rejects incompatible coordinate systems during image transformation operations.

Changes

Coordinate-system compatibility

Layer / File(s) Summary
Destination coordinate metadata
include/depthai/common/Extrinsics.hpp, protos/common.proto, src/utility/ProtoSerialize.cpp, bindings/python/src/pipeline/CommonBindings.cpp, include/depthai/common/ImgTransformations.hpp
Extrinsics stores toDeviceId, serializes it, documents target coordinate requirements, and exposes compatibility APIs to Python.
Coordinate-system validation
src/pipeline/datatype/Extrinsics.cpp, src/pipeline/datatype/ImgTransformations.cpp
Extrinsics equality, transformation calculation, remapping, and alignment now validate device ID and camera-socket compatibility.
Metadata and behavior tests
tests/src/onhost_tests/image_transformations_test.cpp, tests/src/ondevice_tests/img_transformation_test.cpp
Tests cover compatibility, failures, remapping, binary serialization, protobuf round trips, and frame metadata.
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to db22d

The PR adds device IDs to image transformations and propagates them through related APIs and compatibility paths. A minor documentation update remains for the expanded equality semantics, but no actionable merge-blocking risk remains.

Poem

I’m a rabbit checking IDs in the den,
Device names match from end to end again.
Sockets align, or errors appear,
Serialized paths keep metadata near.
Transformations hop with a confident cheer.

Thanks, I'm struggling to understand the usefulness of having source device ID stored? This PR is then not meant for multi device support no?

Learning: In luxonis/depthai-core’s `protos/common.proto`, do not change existing enumerator values for the public `LengthUnit` and `CameraBoardSocket` enums, and do not prepend new zero-value entries like `UNSPECIFIED`. These enums are already released as public API and are used in serialized data; altering numeric values or changing the first/zero member will break backward compatibility with existing user code and stored/serialized representations.

Timestamp: 2026-03-24T22:39:04.364Z
Learning: Do not flag the `!= ""` part of the auto-calibration condition as redundant when it appears in `PipelineImpl::build()` (or closely related pipeline build logic). If the code uses `utility::getEnvAs<std::string>(..., default)` with a default such as `"ON_START"`, the explicit empty-string guard may still be intentional to treat an explicitly empty env var as “OFF/disabled” (or to avoid special-casing elsewhere). Only consider removing `!= ""` if the codebase has an explicit, enforceable guarantee that `DEPTHAI_AUTOCALIBRATION` can never be set to an empty string (e.g., via validated parsing/CI checks); otherwise, keep the guard.

Update the equality documentation.

isEqualExtrinsics now also requires matching toDeviceId, but include/depthai/common/Extrinsics.hpp documents equality only in terms of rotation and translation. Update the public comment to mention toCameraSocket and toDeviceId.
