I have followed this tutorial to simulate IRIS quad copter in gazebo and control it using dronekit on python.
https://ardupilot.org/dev/docs/using-...
I read my webcam stream using openCV's 'cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0) '
How to make this function read the simulated camera on the iris quadcopter?
For me I ususlly use a "libgazebo_ros_camera.so" plugin to capture Gazebo images and publish to a Ros topic.
Afterwards, obtain the Image via Ros topic and use Cv_Bridge to turn the image into OpenCV friendly.
You shall use cv_bridge to convert the Gazebo Image topics into OpenCV freindly image frames. I am almost sure, OpcenCV by itself won't detect Gazebo Topics as a streaming source.
You can find out more here, and in this question from myself, with a sample code.
Hope you can manage to do it.
