Re: Using Sentinel Drone with IntelRealSense Depth Camera D435
So this isn't a problem. I have seen on the forum some talk on using the D435i with the Voxl2 through the USB connection and can confidently say we succeeeded, so we are linking the Github method to get it working. This was with SDK 1.1.1. We also used the USBA port into a USB hub bought of the shelf to connect both wifi and D435i into the hub in case anyone wants to try using the D435i our their voxl2.
For our stereo application we found the D435i gave signficantly bettere stereo depth images than the native stereo-dfs-server, but it is up to you guys which one you prefer.

At the end of this you should be able to use ros2 run rqt_image_view rqt_image_view in order to see the output after running the ros2 realsense camera node
