Install from ros binaries

Add USB rules to your system

echo 'SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="03e7", MODE="0666"' | sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/80-movidius.rules
sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger

Install depthai-ros. (Available for Noetic, foxy, galactic and humble) sudo apt install ros-<distro>-depthai-ros

Install from source

Install dependencies

The following script will install depthai-core and update usb rules and install depthai devices

sudo wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/luxonis/depthai-ros/main/install_dependencies.sh | sudo bash

if you don’t have opencv installed then try sudo apt install libopencv-dev

if you don’t have rosdep installed and not initialized please execute the following steps:

1. sudo apt install python-rosdep(melodic) or sudo apt install python3-rosdep
2. sudo rosdep init
3. rosdep update

Setting up procedure

The following setup procedure assumes you have cmake version >= 3.10.2 and OpenCV version >= 4.0.0. We selected dai_ws as the name for a new folder, as it will be our depthai ros workspace.

1. mkdir -p dai_ws/src
2. cd dai_ws/src
3. git clone https://github.com/luxonis/depthai-ros.git
4. cd ../..
5. rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -r -y
6. source /opt/ros/<ros-distro>/setup.bash
7. catkin_make (For ROS1) colcon build (for ROS2)
8. source devel/setup.bash (For ROS1) & source install/setup.bash (for ROS2)

Executing an example

ROS1

1. cd dai_ws (Our workspace)
2. source devel/setup.bash
3. roslaunch depthai_examples stereo_inertial_node.launch - example node For more examples please check the launch files.

ROS2

1. cd dai_ws (Our workspace)
2. source install/setup.bash
3. ros2 launch depthai_examples stereo_inertial_node.launch.py - example node For more examples please check the launch files.
