Rgbdslam (v2) on ROS indigo using Orbbec astra
I use rgbdslam (v2) on ROS indigo (Ubuntu 14.04) , trying to get it working with Orbbec Astra when i launch :
roslaunch astra_launch astra.launch
roslaunch rgbdslam rgbdslam.launch
i got this :

this is the launch file :
<launch>

</node> </launch> What can I do !
I appreciate your help ...
It isn't entirely clear what the problem is - there doesn't seem to be any errors in the picture you've uploaded?
Thank you for your answer @stevejp
yes it shows no errors, the nodes are well connected ,but rgbdslam doesn't give me anything only keep waiting for depth image on topic "/camera/depth/image_raw"
/ for visual image on topic "/camera/rgb/image_rect_color"
/for feature image...
rqt_graph donne :
Are you sure your camera is working? If you just run your camera node are the proper topics being published under the correct names? Can you visualize them in rviz? Could you post a list of topics being published by your camera?
yes it works well
i have visual and depth image but i have no idea how to get "feature image"
"Waiting for feature image.." what does it mean ?
indeed, even if I disconnect the camera, it gives the same result seen on the picture
