@Darshit-Desai Can anyone help with this? @tom

@Darshit-Desai this is a more generic ROS
tf
transform network question than anything specific to ModalAI devices. You can get any result you'd like by adding appropriate frames to map or vehicle in thetf
tree. For example, sincerviz
is hard coded to expect z axis upwards and everything is easier with z axis down, I'll attach anENU
frame to every fixed mapNED
frame and vehicle carried bodyFRD
frame. That allows for all algorithms to be implemented inNED/FRD
and still use ROS visualization by selectingENU
frames asfixed
andview
.Check out the
tf
documentation http://wiki.ros.org/tf2The
static transform publisher
is a quick way to test changes. Then you'll want to explore using http://wiki.ros.org/urdf -
@ben-grocholsky It shows up the same in VOXL PORTAL too.
Is there a way to get camera intrinsic Matrix of the ToF camera. Also, if I want to align the depth image with the RGB image how do I do that? -
@Darshit-Desai I wanted to ask one more follow up to this question? The datasheet in voxl-documentation says the PMD TOF runs at 45 fps for ranging distances less then 1 metres. Is there a way to set that?

@Darshit-Desai No, there is no current way to set that

@Darshit-Desai the recommendation to learn about
tf
,urdf
, andxacro
in ROS was because that's a way to achieve what you're asking for. If you get thelaunch
andconfig
files right then ROS tools such asrviz
will do what ever you want without writing any code. -

Hi sorry, I wanted to ask about the intrinsics that was highlighted by mistake. @ben-grocholsky
