At a high level:

  • The realsense-ros wrapper (opens new window) provided by Intel should be used to extract the raw data from the camera.
  • 카메라는 렌즈가 아래를 향하도록 장착하여야 합니다 (기본값). Be sure to specify the camera orientation by publishing the static transform between the base_link and camera_pose_frame in a ROS launch file, for example:
    <node pkg="tf" type="static_transform_publisher" name="tf_baseLink_cameraPose"
        args="0 0 0 0 1.5708 0 base_link camera_pose_frame 1000"/>
    
    This is a static transform that links the camera ROS frame camera_pose_frame to the MAVROS drone frame base_link.
    • the first three args specify translation x,y,z in metres from the center of the flight controller to the camera. 예를 들어 카메라가 컨트롤러 앞 10cm, 위쪽 4cm 인 경우 처음 세 숫자는 [0.1, 0, 0.04, ...]입니다.
    • 다음 세 개의 인수는 라디안 (요, 피치, 롤)으로 회전을 지정합니다. So [... 0, 1.5708, 0] means pitch down by 90° (facing the ground). 정면을 바라보는 것은 [... 0 0 0]입니다.
  • The camera is sensitive to high-frequency vibrations! 방진 폼을 사용하여 장착하여야 합니다.
