Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to The PR adds device IDs to image transformations and preserves them across APIs and serialization. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains; the remaining round-trip test follow-up is narrow and non-blocking. Possibly related PRs

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?

In the context of multi device pipelines, how would deviceId be used? Looking at the current code, it throws any time the deviceId is different. Is there a reason you decided against deviceId meaning the target device? Is there a reason why we need source device ID at all?

lhs and rhs arent general parameter names. From my understanding we will be using deviceId for multi-device cases so this naming really does not fit here

I would expand the function to also validate the toCameraSockets like it is done in the below lines. Also if deviceId means target device to where it is pointing to, then we should make it a member funciton of Extrnisics

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.

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.

Add a protobuf round-trip test.
Use ImgFrame::serializeProto and utility::setProtoMessage (or the equivalent EncodedFrame path). Assert that deserialized.getExtrinsics().toDeviceId remains "mxid-a".

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.
