Overview
This package contains a ROS driver node for IDS Imaging uEye cameras.
The driver node has been tested with the version 4.60 https://en.ids-imaging.com/download-ueye.html for USB cameras. Future versions should be ABI compatible, and therefore should work.
This package can be installed with apt-get. However, the IDS Imaging driver mentioned above must also be installed.
The driver node has been tested with the following cameras:
- UI-1225LE-C
- UI-124xLE-C
- UI-164xLE-C
- UI-222xSE-C (two cameras synchronized for stereo)
- UI-324xCP-C
Nodes
camera
ROS driver node for uEye cameras.Published Topics
image_raw (sensor_msgs/Image)- The raw image topic.
- Calibration info for each image.
Services
set_camera_info (sensor_msgs/SetCameraInfo)- Sets the calibration parameters saved to a file.
Parameters
~cameraId (int)- Id of the camera to open. Zero for any.
- Force camera to stream images. If false, streaming will stop if no nodes subscribe to the image topic.
- Enable hardware gamma correction if the camera supports it.
- Enable auto-exposure time if the camera supports it.
- Exposure time in milliseconds if ~auto_exposure is false.
- Zoom level with global binning.
- Image stream rate. The node will not allow ~frame_rate to exceed the limits of the camera with the constraints of other parameters such as ~zoom and ~pixel_clock.
- Pixel clock speed for USB in MHz.
- The tf frame_id in the published message headers.
- Enable automatic hardware gain if the camera supports it.
- Enables constant hardware analog gain boost if the camera supports it.
- Sets the image hardware gain if ~auto_gain is false.
framerate
Node that displays the actual rate of an image stream.Subscribed Topics
image_raw (sensor_msgs/Image)- The raw image topic.
Parameters
~topic (string)- Topic name of the image stream to subscribe to.
Usage
To run stereo cameras
$ rosrun ueye stereo
You might want to lower resolution by setting the zoom parameter
$ rosrun ueye stereo _zoom:=2
In case there are multiple cameras connected, you can choose the cameras that will be used by specifying the camera ids.
$ rosrun ueye stereo _lCameraId:=1 _rCameraId:=3
Camera Calibration
The camera node supports calibration with the camera_calibration package.
There are tutorials on how to run the calibration tool for monocular and stereo cameras.
