Hi all,

visp_auto_tracker was working perfectly fine for me until today...when I ran visp_auto_tracker, I got the message below repeatedly as the webcam tracked the QR code.

When I check "rostopic echo /visp_auto_tracker/object_position", I saw that I was no longer getting any pose data from the webcam. The tracking markers that were supposed to show up on the debug display window were no longer there as well. I noticed there were only 8 markers at the corners of the QR code labelled: mi1, mi2, mi3, mi4, mo1, mo2, mo3, mo4. I'm kind of stumped since this problem came out of nowhere and I don't recall changing anything either. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
