OpenCV: How to visualize a depth image

Question

I am using a dataset in which it has images where each pixel is a 16 bit unsigned int storing the depth value of that pixel in mm. I am trying to visualize this as a greysca

Ifimshow input has floating point data type then the function assumes that pixel values are in [0; 1] range. As result all values higher than 1 are displayed white.

So you need not divide your divisor by 255.
