Hi all!
Is it possible to control the kinect motor (falling gradient from the kinect) by ROS?
Thank you for help!
I use the ROS package "kinect_aux" to control the motor and the LED. And also to get the IMU data.
If the answer was good enough for your needs, please mark this answer as correct by clicking the checkmark under the voting buttons.
FYI - I found the source at git://github.com/ros-pkg-git/kinect.git, and the kinect_aux part still compiled. I don't know how to install the old package.
I meant I don't know how to install it with apt-get. I suppose I'd have to add the old diamondback repository and I guess I could look that up. The point of my comment was actually to post the link to the source repository, which wasn't on the wiki.
As far as I know there is no repository with kinect_aux for fuerte or groovy. The old diamondback repository will not work, the package muss be compiled for/with fuerte.
Not directly in ROS the driver loaded by openni_launch
, but you can do that through OpenNI using the procedure described here. It would be nice if we could do that directly in reconfigure_gui
though...
