Describe the bug

The window opens, but is black.

Steps to Reproduce

Run distance.py

What is expected?

An depth image. This did work at the start. The camera seems very hot.

What is actually happening?

The camera seems very hot. I think this is a hardware failure. Just wondering if you wanted the camera back to do a failure analysis.

Any additional comments?

Pls try it out on a regular laptop or desktop machine where you can successfully run the pip list | grep TauLidar command.
I'd like to rule out this issue being caused by the Jetson Nano.

I ran this on my pc under windows with Spyder. Here is the output from the camera: 4 runfile('C:/Users/richardg71/.spyder-py3/temp.py', wdir='C:/Users/richardg71/.spyder-py3') Looking for connected Tau LiDAR Camera hardware ...

The grep won’t work on windows, but here is the pip list for the items TauLidarCamera.
