Image Quality Degradation between External Camera Stream and Display in Unity

Part of code responsible for generating texture would certainly not be a bad thing.

Also quick question: if you import this good quality image into Unity, does it look as bad as the generated one?

In response to @Casiell, here's the script for generating the texture from an inco$$anonymous$$g array of bytes.

 public sealed class ValkyrieCameraSubscriber_3D : UnitySubscriber<$$anonymous$$essageTypes.Sensor.CompressedImage>
     {
 
         public $$anonymous$$eshRenderer meshRenderer;
 
         private Texture2D texture2D;
         private byte[] imageData;
         private bool is$$anonymous$$essageReceived;
 
         protected override void Start()
         {
             
             base.Start();
 
             texture2D = new Texture2D(Screen.height, Screen.width);
             meshRenderer.material = new $$anonymous$$aterial(Shader.Find("Unlit/Texture"));
 
         }
 
         private void Update()
         {
             if (this.is$$anonymous$$essageReceived)
             {
 
                 Process$$anonymous$$essage();
             }
         }
 
 
         private void Process$$anonymous$$essage()
         {
 
             texture2D.LoadImage(imageData);
             texture2D.Apply();
 
             meshRenderer.material.SetTexture("_$$anonymous$$ainTex", texture2D);
             is$$anonymous$$essageReceived = false;
         }
 
         protected override void Receive$$anonymous$$essage($$anonymous$$essageTypes.Sensor.CompressedImage image)
         {
             imageData = image.data;
             is$$anonymous$$essageReceived = true;
         }
     }

Receive$$anonymous$$essage is a callback function that is invoked each time a ROS message comes through. Upon receipt of a CompressedImage, the imageData variable is updated with the image bytes. Then, Process$$anonymous$$essage is called, which invokes LoadImage on the Texture2D object to get the image data in there, then it uses Apply() to ensure that it'll display right (the documentation told me this step was necessary). Then we set the plane's texture to this generated texture.

As for the importation of the good quality image, it appears that it retains excellent sharpness if I import a snapshot of the camera feed like a regular texture.
