data_recorder node missing from rtabmap_ros package [closed]
Hello,
I recently installed rtabmap_ros and rtabmap on Ubuntu 14.04, using apt-get:
sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-rtabmap-ros
sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-rtabmap
I would like to record stereo images to a database, as is done in this sample launch file. However, I noticed that the node "data_recorder" is missing.
rosrun rtabmap_ros data_recorder
[rosrun] Couldn't find executable named data_recorder below /opt/ros/indigo/share/rtabmap_ros
The only nodes available from rtabmap_ros are the following:
rosrun rtabmap_ros
camera grid_map_assembler map_optimizer rtabmap stereo_odometry
data_player map_assembler rgbd_odometry rtabmapviz
Am I missing a library to build this node? I did not receive any error or warning when downloading the packages from apt-get and my system is up-to-date.
Alternatively, is there another package that can build a database of stereo images to use with rtabmap odometry viewer tool?
Best Regards,
Audren
rtabmap_ros/CMakeLists.txt defines a bunch of executables, but
data_recorder
is not one of them. Perhaps report?Thanks a lot! You confirmed the problem was not related to my installation. I found a work-around and posted it in the answer section. I will also report the issue so that the wiki page can be updated.
