References

• ROS 2 Intel RealSense

Install

I adapted the following Dashing instructions below to Foxy.

• Intel RealSense Dashing Release

Then I tried these Foxy instructions I found did the source install differently

• [1] ROS org RealSense Foxy Release]

Install ROS2 Dependences

sudo apt update

TBD: I didn't do an upgrade because that has sometimes broken things. This may be a mistake.

The following were already installed.

• ros-foxy-cv-bridge
• ros-foxy-message-filters
• ros-foxy-image-transport

The following installed successfully.

• rose-foxy-librealsense2

Install Other non-ROS Debian Packages

The following were already installed.

• libssl-dev
• libusb-1.0-0-dev
• pkg-config
• libgl1-mesa-dev
• libglu1-mesa-dev

The following were installed successfully

• libgtk-3-dev
• libglfw3-dev

Install ros2_intel_realsense Binary Packages - failed

It could not locate the following packages.

• ros-foxy-realsense-camera-msgs
• ros-foxy-realsense-ros2-camera

So I move to the source process.

Install ros2_intel_realsense from Source - Failed

 $ cd image_ws/src/

 $ git clone https://github.com/intel/ros2_intel_realsense.git
       Cloning into 'ros2_intel_realsense'...
       remote: Enumerating objects: 961, done.
       remote: Total 961 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 961

       Resolving deltas: 100% (567/567), done.
 
 $ ls
       image_pipeline  ros2_intel_realsense

The image_pipeline did not compile cleanly. So to avoid getting error messages from its packages that did not compile, disable compiling it.

 $ cd image_pipeline/

 $ cp ~/eepp_ws/src/image_listener/CATKIN_IGNORE .

 $ cd ..

 $ cd ..
 
 $ colcon build --symlink-install --parallel-workers 1
       ...
       ...

These are the results for each package

• Success: realsense_camera_msgs
• Failed: realsense_ros2_camera - It could not find some of the stuff for librealsense2 which compiled fine above. Not sure what to do.

Install ros2_intel_realsense From Source - Better

Moved to the following instructions on the ROS org repository site which changed the source compile for Foxy

• [2] ROS org RealSense Foxy Release]

 $ cd src/

 $ ls
       image_pipeline  ros2_intel_realsense

 $ cd ros2_intel_realsense/

 $ git checkout refactor
       Branch 'refactor' set up to track remote branch 'refactor' from 'origin'.
       Switched to a new branch 'refactor'

 $ ls
       CHANGELOG.rst  README.md           realsense_msgs  realsense_ros
       LICENSE        realsense_examples  realsense_node

 $ cd ../..

 $ colcon build --symlink-install --parallel-workers 1
       ...   
       ...

These are the results for each package

• Success: realsense_msg
• Failed: realsense_ros
• Success: realsense_node
• Success: realsense_examples
