<![CDATA[voxl-configure-cameras]]>Hello, I hope everyone is having a great day.

For some reason I am not able to access my camera configurations anymore.
I started experiencing this issue after I updated my voxl version.
I can send the #7 configuration (tof + stereo + tracking) to voxl as an argument, but I am still not able to get any config IDs.
My qvio is working properly. I can also inspect the tof with no issues either.
In Rviz, all my cameras are working expect for my tof cam (of course my stereo cameras are upsidedown).

Is this because of the updates I perfomed?

Maybe I am just missing an ipk package. Just not sure which one.

If you run the script with the --help flag you can see the examples of how to do this.

rosrun tf static_transform_publisher 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 map world 5

from a new terminal after I ran rviz.

The TOF is still not being recognized.

My stereo cameras are still upside down, I dont really know how to make them upright. In my previous build I was able to run

voxl-configure-cameras

and select the #7 build with the option to rotate the stereo cameras.
In this new build, this is not possible.

In Rviz am not able to change the fixed frame from [map] to [world].

I can pull up the tof data (voxl-inspect-tof) and nothing seems wrong there......
depth is working, as I am able to run the voxl-inspect-tof and move my hand in front of the tof sensor, and see the depth meter changing.

We're publishing 4 "images" that will show up like other camera frames (depth, noise, confidence, IR) alongside the full pointcloud. Are you able to pull up any of the debug images or is nothing coming through?

Thank you for your help.
I am not sure what it could be. I thought that it might be something I am missing. Is there any way for me to find out?

We removed the camera information in the bash environment since we moved away from having ros access the camera api and instead use camera server, which mpa-to-ros pull frames from and then publishes to ros. If you want to view the configuration generated by configure cameras you can see the config file at /etc/modalai/voxl-camera-server.conf.

As for your rviz issue, I flashed a fresh 3.8.0-0.7 on my board, ran configure cameras and mpa-to-ros, and was able to successfully see all of my cameras (tracking, stereo, tof):

Do you have anything else in you setup that could be causing the tof camera to not work?
