[ros-users] Running RVIZ

[shahmi]

Does anybody have an idea about this? I guess, it is a need to write a node to publish the topic. Or anybody have had one written it.

Thanks.

Hi,

Thanks a lot Ugo and Ivan.

I actually would like to run  "srl_people_tracker_0.2" and visualize the data obtained from a log file provided in the package.

I've tried to run the following command and could not find any topic to subscribe to:

rosrun srl_people_tracker_0.2 mht_run  -c parameters/settings/parameters.ini -f /opt/ros/cturtle/stacks/srl_people_tracker_0.2/srl-people-tracker-0.2/testfile/testing1.log

My aim is to visualize it via RVIZ not via GNUPLOT as the package provided. 

The package itself is at:
http://www.ros.org/browse/details.php?name=srl_people_tracker_0.2


Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Shahmi

Shahmi,

You probably won't need to write any nodes. To visualize your data, you will need a node to communicate with the laser driver and publish the scans, and then rviz to visualize them. If your laser is a Hokuyo or a SICK, there is support for them in the laser_drivers stack:

    Do you have a node publishing the cloud point?

    

    To run rviz, you just need to run:

    > rosrun rviz rviz

    

    You should have a look at: http://www.ros.org/wiki/rviz/UserGuide

    

    Cheers,

    

    Ugo

            Hi all,

              

              I would like know, do we need to write a node in order to
              run RVIZ package. I actually want to visualize data  from
              laser scanner via RVIZ. Is it possible to run it even
              without any node written.

              

              Thanks in advance.

              

              Regards,

              Shahmi
