image_transport_py: Python Bindings for ROS 2 Image Transport

Introduction

image_transport_py is a Python package that provides bindings for image_transport. It enables efficient publishing and subscribing of images in Python, leveraging various transport plugins (e.g., raw, compressed). The package allows developers to handle image topics more efficiently and with less overhead than using standard ROS 2 topics.

Usage

The detailed tutorial on image_transport and image_transport_py can be found at: https://github.com/ros-perception/image_transport_tutorials.

Publisher

A publisher for images.

Methods

  • get_topic()

    Returns the base image topic.

  • get_num_subscribers()
