2016-04-18 12:34:50 -0500 | asked a question | Using RTABMap and Kinect, how do you get distance at a certain point? Hi. I appreciate all the efforts and amazing work in the ROS community. In my situation, I am trying to estimate a distance to an object using RTABMap, ROS, and a Kinect 360. For my implementation, we are using ROS indigo and libfreenect . In our system, we are able to display the field of view of the robot to a web page using roslibjs. When the user clicks on a certain (x,y) coordinate on that video stream, we want to obtain an estimated distance to the object. Is there an API in RTABMap/ROS that can help me obtain this information easily? It looks like the information should be available in the following topic: /camera/depth_registered/image_raw - Raw image from device. Contains uint16 depths in mm. I'm not sure how I might extract/read the information. I do appreciate your help and pointers. All the best! |
