Intel RealSense Foxy 20210511

References

• ROS 2 Intel RealSense

Install

I adapted the following Dashing instructions below to Foxy.

• Intel RealSense Dashing 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

 $ cd image_ws/src/

 $ git clone https://github.com/intel/ros2_intel_realsense.git
       Cloning into 'ros2_intel_realsense'...
       remote: Enumerating objects: 961, done.

       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
       ...
       ...
