Import Cameras#
The setup context stage and an independent operator for importing extrinsic and intrinsic camera parameters.
For import, you need to select one or more files - their type will be determined automatically. Unlike scene importer, the file type will be determined not only by the extension - as soon as the files are selected, they will be partially read and checked. The check will be based on the key characteristics of various file types of third-party software - it can be the first line with a file description or simply the number of elements in a line (for character-separated formats). For XML
files, certain keys will be found in the tree and so on.
