2014-01-29 17:03:52 -0500 commented question problem with viso2 "visual odometer got lost"

thanks for all the help.i am have another problem is that when it is stationary there will not be any error but when it start to move it will say "visual odometer got lost" any problem what is wrong? another thing is that is num_matches value from 30 to 45 and num_inliers from 20 to 34 a good value?

And from what you see is there any problem with my code or is it the problem with the calibration or the scene has no features?

ok thanks,for the base_line of the camera if the calculated base_line is 0.281 meter while my actual base_line is 0.285 meter does it make a huge difference? For the length of the chessboard square i use is 0.093 meter is it ok?

hi i have also notice that after a certain amount of time the program will say "[rosbag-2] process has finished cleanly".The bagfile i am using is "set_01 (grayscale)" from www6.in.tum.de/~kloses/rvc/kitti_bags/

For the point cloud i tried using rviz but it gives me a error "For frame [/camera]: No transform to fixed frame [/odom]. TF error: [Unable to lookup transform, cache is empty, when looking up transform from frame [/camera] to frame [/odom]]"

hi i have added the result that i have got from the /stereo_odometer/info topic above.

Hi the disparity image of stereo system looks fine,I get errors even without motion.Does the tf have something to do with the error?can you show me what should I do for the tf as I am not very sure.as for the others can I get back to you in 2 days time cause I am currently away.thanks for the help

hi i am having some problem with the viso2 package's stereo odometry,it gives me "visual odometer got lost" when i am trying to run the launch file.I am currently using 2 Ueye UI-1226LE - USB 2.0 Camera for the stereo odometry.Below are the error that it gives me.
