Connecting intel realsense camera to Navio2 with ROS

[mazenbahy (Mazox)]

I am trying to connect the intel realsense camera to the Navio2 platform via ROS and followed Navio2 ROS home page but I am not able to install packages like “ros-noetic-realsense2-camera” which are needed for the installation.
Running the bash code "bash install-ROS-packages.sh “…” provided is throwing couple of errors that I managed to fix but still have one problem with the command “rosinstall_generator …” which is ignoring the packages "rosinstall_generator ‘realsense2-camera ros-noetic-realsense2-camera’ --rosdistro noetic --deps --wet-only --tar | tee noetic.rosinstall
The following unreleased packages/stacks will be ignored:realsense2-camera ros-noetic-realsense2-camera. No packages/stacks left after ignoring unreleased".
It seems that a lot of packages are not released for noetic (including realsense2-camera) and Navio2 software is providing noetic distro. It will be helpful if anyone can guide me?

Hi Mazox,

Welcome to the forum!

Yes, the Navio 2 Raspbian image supports ROS Noetic. But from the name realsense2-camera ros-noetic-realsense2-camera, it looks to me that the package should also support noetic. Can you check if you can install it by following the steps in this thread?

Hi Georg, To install additional ROS packages, follow the steps below: Clone our repository git clone https://github.com/emlid/Navio2.git cd Navio2 Move to the folder with the script for ROS packages cd Utilities/ROS-packages Install the required package sudo apt-get update bash install-ROS-packages.sh "your_package_name" In your case, the your_package_name parameter should be set to realsense2-camera ros-kinetic-realsense2-camera. This instruction is also given in our Navio2 docs. …
