camera_pose_calibration migrate to indigo [closed]
Hello guys,
I'm trying to use this calibration package for 2 monocular cameras that are fixed on the bottom of a Quadcoter. According to the documentation this package is capable to do this.
my setup
My setup is shown in this figure
- Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty)
- ROS Distro= Indigo
- Catkin workspace with catkin tools
my goal
My goal is to get the pose between the two bottom cameras and also the tf Transformation of the bigger one (I already got the tf from the small bottom camera).
installation problems
Problem about the whole story is more or less the installation.
I checked with
javascript
rosdep db
for the package ros-indigo-camera-pose so i could use
javascript
sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-camera-pose
but had no success.
Second attempt was to try an installation from source through github. Somehow Catkin tools does not recognise the camera_pose package when I try to build it through the command:
javascript
catkin build [package]
Checking the dependencies with rosdep
fails too.
So my first thought was to update this package, so catkin tools can build it. Any suggestion how to do this without studying informatics for 5 years :D?
