Hey everyone I have been playing a bit with the kinect camera using the openni driver. When running openni_node.launch and viewing the rgb image using rviz, then everything looks perfect, but when I create a node that has to the purpose to read the rgb image, convert it to a cv image and displaying it using imshow, then the colours are all wrong. Red is blue, blue is red, green is something yellow and yellow is light blue. I have been trying to use RGB8 and BGR8 encodings, but nether of them shows any difference. A sample of my code is shown below, inspired from the example cv_bridge tutorial: void processRGB::processImage( const sensor_msgs::Image::ConstPtr& img ) { CvImagePtr cv_ptr; try { cv_ptr = toCvCopy(img, enc::BGR8); //enc::RGB8 also used } catch (cv_bridge::Exception& e) { ROS_ERROR("cv_bridge exception: %s", e.what()); return; } imshow("Kinect RGB image", cv_ptr->image); waitKey(3); } Does anyone know what might cause this problem?
