Hi,

I am trying to map the area using the stereo camera and after looking at produced map, all the cells are black, meaning occupied. I have tried to figure out for 2 days but still struggling to understand the reason.

Will it be possibe for someone to have a look at my database? I clearly doing something wrong. Also, as soon as I start RTABmap, the framerate drops to 20 hz from 30 hz and the images lag.

My RTAB database: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sSgH...

The camera is looking up. There is a missing optical rotation that could be fixed by rotating the base frame of the camera:

<arg name="pi/2" value="1.5707963267948966" />
<arg name="optical_rotate" value="0 0 0 -$(arg pi/2) 0 -$(arg pi/2)" />
<node pkg="tf" type="static_transform_publisher" name="camera_base_link" args="$(arg optical_rotate) base_link stereo_camera 100" />

Then make sure to set frame_id parameter of rtabmap to base_link (or whatever is your robot base frame).

cheers,
Mathieu
