I/O: Camera

Introduction

This demo is designed to work with the map loop_0, which can be found in the duckiematrix-examples repository. For this demo, using a different map might not produce the expected result, as the requested vehicle might not be present in the other map.

Step 1: Build the demo

To build the demo, open a terminal and run the following command from the duckiematrix-examples/vehicle/io/camera directory:

dts devel build --pull

Step 2: Run the Duckiematrix

To launch the Duckiematrix renderer on the map loop_0, open another terminal and run the following command from the duckiematrix-examples/maps directory:

dts matrix run --standalone --map loop_0

Step 3: Run the demo

To run the demo, once built, run the following command in the first terminal, where the -X flag enables windows rendering so that camera images can be shown:

dts devel run -X

You should see a matplotlib window pop up showing the image recorded by the Duckiebot’s front-facing camera, as shown in the following image:
