knowing objects dimension in ROS with a Basler camera

Hi Ros users:

I use Ros indigo and ubunto 14.04. I have a Basler camera.

I would like to know the width of an object (a cube for example). So the process will be:

1-Camera detecs the object. 2-A ros node says the width.

Is there any package that does that?

(I could do with rviz maybe)

Thanks a lot.

I don't think there is a ready made solution that does this. You could use opencv to do it yourself though. Also, rviz is only a visualisation tool.
