Can you be more specific on "god' rights? I added myself to usb group, it didn't work without doing "sudo chmod -R a+rwx /dev/bus/usb" whenever SR-3000 was powered on or a USB cable was reconnected", Then I added myself to root group, and it didn't work, either. Thanks,

Did you finally solve the problem? I ran into similar problems as you had. Udev rules(46-mesa.rules) were set as recommended. Added my self to usb group. Got the error "Exception thrown while connecting to the camera: [SR::open]: Failed to open device!". Did "sudo chmod -R a+rwx /dev/bus/usb" as suggested by rasmusan, then everything seemed to be ok as long as SR-3000 was on and the USB cable was connected. However, if SR-3000 was powered off then powered on or the USB cable was disconnected then reconnected, then the error appeared, and "sudo chmod -R a+rwx /dev/bus/usb" was needed to get things going. I am wondering if there is any permanent solution to fix the permission issue. Thanks, CC

I got the same error, and the error was "temporarily" fixed by adding sudo chmod -R a+rwx /dev/bus/usb as suggested. However, I need to do it every time SR-3000 is turned back on or the USB cable is re-plugged in. Is there a permanent fix? I am running Ubuntu 12.04 + ROS fuerte on a 32-bit PC. Thanks, CC

Hi,

Thanks for sharing your experience. I used CameraSubscriber to subscribe both raw_image and camera_info. CameraSubscriber uses MessageFilters and TimeSynchronizer (according to http://www.ros.org/wiki/message_filters) and has been designed for synchronizing raw_image and camera_info.

message_filters::Subscriber<image> image_sub(nh, "image", 1); message_filters::Subscriber<camerainfo> info_sub(nh, "camera_info", 1); TimeSynchronizer<image, camerainfo=""> sync(image_sub, info_sub, 10); sync.registerCallback(boost::bind(&callback, _1, _2)); I guess I could used code segment above directly with the ability to adjust synchronization parameters. What sychronization policy did you use?

I also checked the code in pgr_camera_driver. It used CameraPublisher to "simultanously" publish both topics. When using wired connection, both topics subscribed by my program show the same time-stamp. So the problem doesn't seem to be on publisher side.

Thanks,

CC

I was running pgr_camera_driver (with a PointGrey Flea3 GigE camera) that published both color image and camera_info with the same timestamp in tandam over wireless network. Color image and camera_info were subscribed by another program using image_transport::CameraSubscriber. I got error on synchronization between images and camera_info, and images were not received by the subscriber. The problem went away when the camera was connected through a wired connection. Does anyone experience the same problem? Any suggestion to make pgr_camera_driver work over wireless will be appreciated.

Thanks, CC

I was not working on my own code, not pcl tutorial. I did make it work by adding rosbuild_genmsg() into CMakeList.txt that may cause the message class to be built. My take is that each message class only needs to be built once. Try it out to see if it helps.

Hi, Felix:

I ran into the same problem with message class for [pcl/ModelCoefficients]

ERROR: Cannot load message class for [pcl/ModelCoefficients]. Are your messages built?

Have you found the solution or walk-around?

Thanks,

Hi,

I have been trying to use pgr_camera_driver (from CCNY) to get image stream from a PGR Fleas3 Gige camera. It works just find in Ubuntu 11.10. However, when I tried it in Ubuntu 12.04, image streaming stopped after a few tens of images were received and published. Does anybody have similar problems or know what is the cause of the problem. I am using ROS Fuerte and Ubuntu 12.04 (32 bit).

Thanks,

Hi, Davinci:

Thanks for the pointer. I will try it out.

Hi,

Is there any ROS package to calibration extrinsic parameters of a camera with respect to its mounting frame? I looked at camera_pose_calibration and camera_pose_toolkit, it seems to me that both packages do it through a second camera whose pose with respect its mounting frame or a robot (referred to as URDF cam frame) has been calibrated (i.e. a URDF cam frame is available). My question is that how to do it without any known URDF cam frame.

Thanks in advance.
