Asus Xtion on USB 3.0 - ROS-hydro - Ubuntu 12.10
For a few weeks I want to use pro Xtion, the USB 3.0 ports. I tried in different version of Ubuntu and ROS, but it still does not work. Currently, I'm running Ubuntu 12.10 (64 bits), and hydro ROS. The Xtion USB 2 works well, but when I go to the USB 3.0, I have the following message:
Image: PrimeSense/SensorV2/5.1.0.41: Failed to open the USB device!
Update :
As mentioned in this thread I updated the driver used. But now, even in USB 2.0, I have this message :
Image: PrimeSense/SensorV2/5.1.2.1: Failed to set USB interface!
As mentioned here I update the firmware of my camera, and it works on Windows on USB 3.0.
But unfortunately not with ROS ....
Update 2 :
I try to test OpenNi2 through the package in ros-hydro, when I run rosrun openni2_camera openni2_camera_node, I get the following message:
[INFO] [1378807167.725457003]: Device "1d27/0601 @ 3/3" connected
[WARN] [1378807167.728880859]: ~ device_id is not set! Using first device.
Warning: USB events thread - failed to set priority. This might causes loss of data ...
A little help would be appreciated....
I know it's not much help but at some point I found an article that stated the firmware on the Xtion has a bug that makes it incompatible with the standards compliant implementation of USB3.0 in the linux kernel. I really hoped that somehow this would be fixed, but I am not optimistic about it.
Hello, Thank you for your answer, is it possible to get the link to the article?
it was a year ago that I played with it last, so I'm afraid I don't recall the URL. :( If you do get it working on USB 3 please update the ROS wiki and this question though :D
