[ros-users] New ccny_drivers stack featuring the mv_bluefox_driver

[Carlos J.]

Hello, everybody.

This is a kind request to allow us to create a wiki page for hosting
our new ccny_drivers stack. At the moment, we have only released a
driver for the MatrixVision BlueFox cameras. This is just a wrapper
around the mvIMPACT Acquire framework provided with the camera. The
driver only allows the operation of a single camera, but we will be
expanding to support multiple threads of cameras (devices). The driver
publishes Images messages and the corresponding camera_info that can
be used with the pipeline for further compression and rectification.
Our small contribution can be found at our git repository under:
http://robotics.ccny.cuny.edu/git/ccny-ros-pkg/ccny_drivers.git

Regards,

Carlos Jaramillo
