## Enabling and Visualizing Point Cloud in ROS 2
|
|
|
|
This section demonstrates how to enable point cloud data output from the camera node and visualize it using RViz2, similarly to the initial camera node setup discussed in the [Starting Camera Node](./start_camera_node.MD) document.
|
|
|
|
### Enabling Depth Point Cloud
|
|
|
|
#### Command to Enable Depth Point Cloud
|
|
|
|
To activate the point cloud data stream for depth information, use the following command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
ros2 launch orbbec_camera gemini_330_series.launch.py enable_point_cloud:=true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Visualizing Depth Point Cloud in RViz2
|
|
|
|
After running the above command, perform the following steps to visualize the depth point cloud:
|
|
|
|
1. Open RViz2.
|
|
2. Add a `PointCloud2` display.
|
|
3. Select the `/camera/depth/points` topic for visualization.
|
|
4. Set the fixed frame to `camera_link` to properly align the data.
|
|
|
|
##### Example Visualization
|
|
|
|
Here is what the depth point cloud might look like in RViz2:

|
### Enabling Colored Point Cloud
|
|
|
|
#### Command to Enable Colored Point Cloud
|
|
|
|
To enable the colored point cloud feature, enter the following command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
ros2 launch orbbec_camera gemini_330_series.launch.py enable_colored_point_cloud:=true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Visualizing Colored Point Cloud in RViz2
|
|
|
|
To visualize the colored point cloud data:
|
|
|
|
1. Launch RViz2 following the command execution.
|
|
2. Add a `PointCloud2` display panel.
|
|
3. Choose the `/camera/depth_registered/points` topic from the list.
|
|
4. Ensure the fixed frame is set to `camera_link`.
|
|
|
|
##### Example Visualization
|
|
|
|
The result of the colored point cloud in RViz2 should look similar to this:
