Are ROS Drivers being developed or available to generate compatible video synchronized stereo “/camera/left & camera/right” topics, as for example ROS gscam to use stereo_image_proc packages?

Hello,

We have released ROS 64bit system https://github.com/ArduCAM/MIPI_Camera/tree/master/RPI/lib/aarch64

For the video synchronized stereo, you can use our stereo hat. Our driver support video synchronized stereo based on our stereo hat.

Thank you. I understand that you are referring to using the “Arducam 8MP Synchronized Stereo Camera Bundle Kit for Jetson Nano” SKU B0217J8? The package includes the Stereo Camera HAT, MIPI Camera Module (Dual Cameras), Jetvariety adapter board.

Question 1: Do you sell just the Hat and Jetvariety board, so I can use my own Rpi IMX219 camera?

Question 2: With this hardware installed does these gstreamer commands display the 2 images from the 2 cameras?

$ gst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc sensor_id=0 ! nvoverlaysink
and:
$ gst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc sensor_id=1 ! nvoverlaysink

Question 3: Regarding my first earlier question about the ROS(Melodic version on Ubuntu Bionic), Robot Operating System: Have you tested the HAT operation with the ROS gscam package that generates ROS video message data using the gstreamer Nano function: https://github.com/ros-drivers/gscam

Hello,

Question 1: Do you sell just the Hat and Jetvariety board, so I can use my own Rpi IMX219 camera?

A1: Please contact our [email protected] for more detail information.

Question 2: With this hardware installed does these gstreamer commands display the 2 images from the 2 cameras?

$ gst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc sensor_id=0 ! nvoverlaysink
and:
$ gst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc sensor_id=1 ! nvoverlaysink

A2: Yes, In fact， using our driver, the images of the two cameras are spliced into one and sent to the main control platform. For the main control platform, the images are still received in the mode of one camera. It’s just that the images are stitched.

Question 3: Regarding my first earlier question about the ROS(Melodic version on Ubuntu Bionic), Robot Operating System: Have you tested the HAT operation with the ROS gscam package that generates ROS video message data using the gstreamer Nano function: https://github.com/ros-drivers/gscam

A3: Oh I have not tested the system you said ROS(Melodic version on Ubuntu Bionic), Please attach me the link of the ROS system you are using and I will try to test it.
