ZED2, ROS2-foxy: compressed image topic not available with errors about zed-ros2-wrapper HOT 9 CLOSED

This has been merged.
ros-perception/image_transport_plugins#58
I tried to compile image_transport_plugins from source and it worked fine.

from zed-ros2-wrapper.

I've tried to run the zed driver on foxy, but I'm still seeing the errors reported in this issue. I'm running the following branches:

• zed-ros2-wrapper on dev_foxy 4ccb6ea
• image_transport_plugins on ros2 ros-perception/image_transport_plugins@7cedbf0

PR58 has been merged into the ros2 branch.

from zed-ros2-wrapper.

Yes, I have tried all of the above as well (as per the Description):

• compile image_transport_plugins from source
• applying PR58 manually, then recompiling.
• observe all of the above errors with both attempts.

I can say that there are two problems generated by the same cause: the image_transport plugin does not correctly handle the namespace of the node. I continue to investigate the problem to try to understand if it is possible to fix it

Great thank you so much Walter.

to use image_transport package in foxy:
mkdir -p foxy_ws/src

cd foxy_ws/src

fit clone https://github.com/ros-perception/image_common.git

cd image_common && git checkout galactic

cd .. && git clone https://github.com/ros-perception/image_transport_plugins.git

cd image_transport_plugins && git checkout foxy-devel

cd ../..

source /opt/ros/foxy/setup.bash && colcon build

source install/setup.bash

ros2 run image_transport republish compressed --ros-args -r in/compressed:=image_compressed -r out:=image_raw

This is a ROS2 Foxy bug that they have just solved but it has not yet been merged in the repository.
To avoid the problems you must compile the image_transport package by source.

However the master branch of the ZED ROS2 Wrapper is not ready to work with ROS2 Foxy, we are currently working on a Foxy release, you can checkout the dev_foxy branch.

Recompiling the image_transport_plugins package the new error
[ERROR] Failed to load plugin image_transport/compressed_pub, error string: parameter 'zed_node.xxxxxx.yyyyyyyyyyyyy.format' could not be set: Not supported
comes out.
I suppose that this is caused by the wrong handling of the params namespace by the applied patch.

I'm working on it to try to fix the problem, waiting for a solution by the ROS developers

I reverted to the "original" image_transport_plugins package available with sudo apt install ros-foxy-image-transport-plugins to verify what happens when advertizing the image topics and I noticed this:

at the very beginning, the error is not supported then it becomes parameter 'format' has already been declared, indeed if you look in the params list there is a format parameter.

I can say that there are two problems generated by the same cause: the image_transport plugin does not correctly handle the namespace of the node.

I continue to investigate the problem to try to understand if it is possible to fix it

Good news, thank you

from zed-ros2-wrapper.

Note that I have previously applied PR58 manually and still observed the issue with the ZED2/zed_ros2_wrapper/ROS2-foxy. Do you observe the same @Myzhar?

Thanks in advance.
