使用ROS开启笔记本摄像头之usb_cam

1 在ROS下常用的主要有两种驱动包:usb_cam和uvc_cam,我这里用的是usb_cam(更多的方法参考:https://blog.csdn.net/wilylcyu/article/details/51732710)

2 usb_cam安装:

在ROS工作空间下采用源码安装:

$ cd catkin_ws/src  
$ git clone https://github.com/bosch-ros-pkg/usb_cam.git  
$ cd ..  
$ catkin_make  

其中, catkin_ws是工作空间名

3 运行usb_cam_node开启摄像头

3.1 首先要开启一个终端,开启roscore

3.2 然后开启一个新的终端:

新版本的usb_cam包在launch文件夹下有自带的launch文件，名叫usb_cam-test.launch，我们可以直接cd到这个文件夹下运行它。(我起初直接运行的:rosrun usb_cam usb_cam_node)会出现错误(因为会少一些参数).

$ cd  
$ cd catkin_ws/src/usb_cam/launch  
$ roslaunch usb_cam-test.launch 

所以直接运行launch文件就好.运行成功后可以看一下产生的话题.
