usb_cam
A ROS2 Driver for V4L USB Cameras
This package is based off of V4L devices specifically instead of just UVC.
For ros1 documentation, see the ROS wiki.
Supported ROS2 Distros and Platforms
All Officially supported Linux Distros and corresponding ROS2 releases are supported. Please create an issue if you experience any problems on these platforms.
Windows: TBD/Untested/Unproven MacOS: TBD/Untested/Unproven
For either MacOS or Windows - if you would like to try and get it working please create an issue to document your effort. If it works we can add it to the instructions here!
Quickstart
Assuming you have a supported ROS2 distro installed, run the following command to install the binary release:
sudo apt-get install ros-<ros2-distro>-usb-cam
As of today this package should be available for binary installation on all active ROS2 distros.
If for some reason you cannot install the binaries, follow the directions below to compile from source.
Building from Source
Clone/Download the source code into your workspace:
cd /path/to/catkin_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/ros-drivers/usb_cam.git
Or click on the green "Download zip" button on the repo's github webpage.
Once downloaded and ensuring you have sourced your ROS2 underlay, go ahead and install the dependencies:
cd /path/to/colcon_ws
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -y
From there you should have all the necessary dependencies installed to compile the usb_cam
package:
cd /path/to/colcon_ws
colcon build
source /path/to/colcon_ws/install/setup.bash
Be sure to source the newly built packages after a successful build.
Once sourced, you should be able to run the package in one of three ways, shown in the next section.
Running
The usb_cam_node
can be ran with default settings, by setting specific parameters either via the command line or by loading in a parameters file.
We provide a "default" params file in the usb_cam/config/params.yaml
directory to get you started. Feel free to modify this file as you wish.
Also provided is a launch file that should launch the usb_cam_node_exe
executable along with an additional node that displays an image topic.
The commands to run each of these different ways of starting the node are shown below:
NOTE: you only need to run ONE of the commands below to run the node
# run the executable with default settings (without params file)
ros2 run usb_cam usb_cam_node_exe
# run the executable while passing in parameters via a yaml file
ros2 run usb_cam usb_cam_node_exe --ros-args --params-file /path/to/colcon_ws/src/usb_cam/config/params.yaml
# launch the usb_cam executable that loads parameters from the same `usb_cam/config/params.yaml` file as above
# along with an additional image viewer node
ros2 launch usb_cam demo_launch.py
Launching Multiple usb_cam's
To launch multiple nodes at once, simply remap the namespace of each one:
ros2 run usb_cam usb_cam_node_exe --remap __ns:=/usb_cam_0 --params-file /path/to/usb_cam/config/params_0.yaml
ros2 run usb_cam usb_cam_node_exe --remap __ns:=/usb_cam_1 --params-file /path/to/usb_cam/config/params_1.yaml
Compression
Big thanks to the ros2_v4l2_camera
package and their documentation on this topic.
The usb_cam
should support compression by default since it uses image_transport
to publish its images as long as the image_transport_plugins
package is installed on your system. With the plugins installed the usb_cam
package should publish a compressed
topic automatically.
Unfortunately rviz2
and show_image.py
do not support visualizing the compressed images just yet so you will need to republish the compressed image downstream to uncompress it:
ros2 run image_transport republish compressed raw --ros-args --remap in/compressed:=image_raw/compressed --remap out:=image_raw/uncompressed
Documentation
Doxygen files can be found on the ROS wiki.

- Warn rather than error if framerate can\'t be set The driver doesn\'t currently work with em28xx based devices as they don\'t allow the framerate to be set directly and the node exits with an error. Changing to a warning allows these devices to be used.
- Update README.md
- Merge pull request #24 from rjw57/do-not-touch-parameters-unless-asked do not modify parameters unless explicitly set
- do not modify parameters unless explicitly set The contrast, saturation, brightness, sharpness and focus parameters were recently added to usb_cam. This caused a regression (sigproc/robotic_surgery#17) whereby the default settings for a webcam are overridden in all cases by the hard-coded defaults in usb_cam. In the absence of a know good set of \"default\" values, leave the parameters unset unless the user has explicitly set them in the launch file.

usb_cam
A ROS2 Driver for V4L USB Cameras
This package is based off of V4L devices specifically instead of just UVC.
For ros1 documentation, see the ROS wiki.
Supported ROS2 Distros and Platforms
All Officially supported Linux Distros and corresponding ROS2 releases are supported. Please create an issue if you experience any problems on these platforms.
Windows: TBD/Untested/Unproven MacOS: TBD/Untested/Unproven
For either MacOS or Windows - if you would like to try and get it working please create an issue to document your effort. If it works we can add it to the instructions here!
Quickstart

sudo apt-get install ros-<ros2-distro>-usb-cam

Once sourced, you should be able to run the package in one of three ways, shown in the next section.
Running
The usb_cam_node
can be ran with default settings, by setting specific parameters either via the command line or by loading in a parameters file.
We provide a "default" params file in the usb_cam/config/params.yaml
directory to get you started. Feel free to modify this file as you wish.

executable along with an additional node that displays an image topic.
The commands to run each of these different ways of starting the node are shown below:
NOTE: you only need to run ONE of the commands below to run the node
# run the executable with default settings (without params file)
ros2 run usb_cam usb_cam_node_exe
# run the executable while passing in parameters via a yaml file
ros2 run usb_cam usb_cam_node_exe --ros-args --params-file /path/to/colcon_ws/src/usb_cam/config/params.yaml
# launch the usb_cam executable that loads parameters from the same `usb_cam/config/params.yaml` file as above
# along with an additional image viewer node
ros2 launch usb_cam demo_launch.py
Launching Multiple usb_cam's
To launch multiple nodes at once, simply remap the namespace of each one:
ros2 run usb_cam usb_cam_node_exe --remap __ns:=/usb_cam_0 --params-file /path/to/usb_cam/config/params_0.yaml
ros2 run usb_cam usb_cam_node_exe --remap __ns:=/usb_cam_1 --params-file /path/to/usb_cam/config/params_1.yaml
Compression
Big thanks to the ros2_v4l2_camera
package and their documentation on this topic.
The usb_cam
should support compression by default since it uses image_transport
to publish its images as long as the image_transport_plugins
package is installed on your system. With the plugins installed the usb_cam
package should publish a compressed
topic automatically.
Unfortunately rviz2
and show_image.py
do not support visualizing the compressed images just yet so you will need to republish the compressed image downstream to uncompress it:
ros2 run image_transport republish compressed raw --ros-args --remap in/compressed:=image_raw/compressed --remap out:=image_raw/uncompressed

- Warn rather than error if framerate can\'t be set The driver doesn\'t currently work with em28xx based devices as they don\'t allow the framerate to be set directly and the node exits with an error. Changing to a warning allows these devices to be used.
- Update README.md
- Merge pull request #24 from rjw57/do-not-touch-parameters-unless-asked do not modify parameters unless explicitly set
- do not modify parameters unless explicitly set The contrast, saturation, brightness, sharpness and focus parameters were recently added to usb_cam. This caused a regression (sigproc/robotic_surgery#17) whereby the default settings for a webcam are overridden in all cases by the hard-coded defaults in usb_cam. In the absence of a know good set of \"default\" values, leave the parameters unset unless the user has explicitly set them in the launch file.

usb_cam
A ROS2 Driver for V4L USB Cameras
This package is based off of V4L devices specifically instead of just UVC.
For ros1 documentation, see the ROS wiki.
Supported ROS2 Distros and Platforms
All Officially supported Linux Distros and corresponding ROS2 releases are supported. Please create an issue if you experience any problems on these platforms.
Windows: TBD/Untested/Unproven MacOS: TBD/Untested/Unproven
For either MacOS or Windows - if you would like to try and get it working please create an issue to document your effort. If it works we can add it to the instructions here!
Quickstart
Assuming you have a supported ROS2 distro installed, run the following command to install the binary release:
sudo apt-get install ros-<ros2-distro>-usb-cam
As of today this package should be available for binary installation on all active ROS2 distros.
If for some reason you cannot install the binaries, follow the directions below to compile from source.
Building from Source
Clone/Download the source code into your workspace:
cd /path/to/catkin_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/ros-drivers/usb_cam.git
Or click on the green "Download zip" button on the repo's github webpage.
Once downloaded and ensuring you have sourced your ROS2 underlay, go ahead and install the dependencies:
cd /path/to/colcon_ws
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -y
From there you should have all the necessary dependencies installed to compile the usb_cam
package:
cd /path/to/colcon_ws
colcon build
source /path/to/colcon_ws/install/setup.bash
Be sure to source the newly built packages after a successful build.
Once sourced, you should be able to run the package in one of three ways, shown in the next section.
Running
The usb_cam_node
can be ran with default settings, by setting specific parameters either via the command line or by loading in a parameters file.
We provide a "default" params file in the usb_cam/config/params.yaml
directory to get you started. Feel free to modify this file as you wish.
Also provided is a launch file that should launch the usb_cam_node_exe
executable along with an additional node that displays an image topic.
The commands to run each of these different ways of starting the node are shown below:
NOTE: you only need to run ONE of the commands below to run the node
# run the executable with default settings (without params file)
ros2 run usb_cam usb_cam_node_exe
# run the executable while passing in parameters via a yaml file
ros2 run usb_cam usb_cam_node_exe --ros-args --params-file /path/to/colcon_ws/src/usb_cam/config/params.yaml
# launch the usb_cam executable that loads parameters from the same `usb_cam/config/params.yaml` file as above
# along with an additional image viewer node
ros2 launch usb_cam demo_launch.py
Launching Multiple usb_cam's
To launch multiple nodes at once, simply remap the namespace of each one:
ros2 run usb_cam usb_cam_node_exe --remap __ns:=/usb_cam_0 --params-file /path/to/usb_cam/config/params_0.yaml
ros2 run usb_cam usb_cam_node_exe --remap __ns:=/usb_cam_1 --params-file /path/to/usb_cam/config/params_1.yaml
Compression
Big thanks to the ros2_v4l2_camera
package and their documentation on this topic.
The usb_cam
should support compression by default since it uses image_transport
to publish its images as long as the image_transport_plugins
package is installed on your system. With the plugins installed the usb_cam
package should publish a compressed
topic automatically.
Unfortunately rviz2
and show_image.py
do not support visualizing the compressed images just yet so you will need to republish the compressed image downstream to uncompress it:
ros2 run image_transport republish compressed raw --ros-args --remap in/compressed:=image_raw/compressed --remap out:=image_raw/uncompressed
Documentation
Doxygen files can be found on the ROS wiki.

Changelog for package usb_cam
0.4.2 (2022-04-25)
- Minor bump for release
- Merge pull request #184 from clalancette/clalancette/cleanups
- Switch the rolling docker image to use jammy.
- Add default cases to switches. This just quiets the compiler warnings.
- Switch xioctl to take an unsigned long request. This matches what ioctl actually takes, and gets rid of a sign comparison warning.
- Use uint32_t to store image sizes. This matches the v4l2 structures, and ensures we don\'t get sign warnings when compiling.
- Merge pull request #178 from benmaidel/feature/unsupported_set_format_options_ros2 [ros2] allow cameras that do not support setting format options via VIDIOC_S_FMT
- allow cameras that do not support setting format options via VIDIOC_S_FMT

0.1.13 (2014-12-02)
- Merge pull request #25 from blutack/patch-1 Warn rather than error if framerate can\'t be set
- Warn rather than error if framerate can\'t be set The driver doesn\'t currently work with em28xx based devices as they don\'t allow the framerate to be set directly and the node exits with an error. Changing to a warning allows these devices to be used.
- Update README.md
- Merge pull request #24 from rjw57/do-not-touch-parameters-unless-asked do not modify parameters unless explicitly set
- do not modify parameters unless explicitly set The contrast, saturation, brightness, sharpness and focus parameters were recently added to usb_cam. This caused a regression (sigproc/robotic_surgery#17) whereby the default settings for a webcam are overridden in all cases by the hard-coded defaults in usb_cam. In the absence of a know good set of \"default\" values, leave the parameters unset unless the user has explicitly set them in the launch file.

- Merge pull request #25 from blutack/patch-1 Warn rather than error if framerate can\'t be set
- Warn rather than error if framerate can\'t be set The driver doesn\'t currently work with em28xx based devices as they don\'t allow the framerate to be set directly and the node exits with an error. Changing to a warning allows these devices to be used.
- Update README.md
- Merge pull request #24 from rjw57/do-not-touch-parameters-unless-asked do not modify parameters unless explicitly set
- do not modify parameters unless explicitly set The contrast, saturation, brightness, sharpness and focus parameters were recently added to usb_cam. This caused a regression (sigproc/robotic_surgery#17) whereby the default settings for a webcam are overridden in all cases by the hard-coded defaults in usb_cam. In the absence of a know good set of \"default\" values, leave the parameters unset unless the user has explicitly set them in the launch file.

usb_cam
A ROS2 Driver for V4L USB Cameras
This package is based off of V4L devices specifically instead of just UVC.
For ros1 documentation, see the ROS wiki.
Supported ROS2 Distros and Platforms
All Officially supported Linux Distros and corresponding ROS2 releases are supported. Please create an issue if you experience any problems on these platforms.
Windows: TBD/Untested/Unproven MacOS: TBD/Untested/Unproven
For either MacOS or Windows - if you would like to try and get it working please create an issue to document your effort. If it works we can add it to the instructions here!
Quickstart
Assuming you have a supported ROS2 distro installed, run the following command to install the binary release:
sudo apt-get install ros-<ros2-distro>-usb-cam
As of today this package should be available for binary installation on all active ROS2 distros.
If for some reason you cannot install the binaries, follow the directions below to compile from source.
Building from Source
Clone/Download the source code into your workspace:
cd /path/to/catkin_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/ros-drivers/usb_cam.git
Or click on the green "Download zip" button on the repo's github webpage.
Once downloaded and ensuring you have sourced your ROS2 underlay, go ahead and install the dependencies:
cd /path/to/colcon_ws
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -y
From there you should have all the necessary dependencies installed to compile the usb_cam
package:
cd /path/to/colcon_ws
colcon build
source /path/to/colcon_ws/install/setup.bash
Be sure to source the newly built packages after a successful build.
Once sourced, you should be able to run the package in one of three ways, shown in the next section.
Running
The usb_cam_node
can be ran with default settings, by setting specific parameters either via the command line or by loading in a parameters file.
We provide a "default" params file in the usb_cam/config/params.yaml
directory to get you started. Feel free to modify this file as you wish.
Also provided is a launch file that should launch the usb_cam_node_exe
executable along with an additional node that displays an image topic.
The commands to run each of these different ways of starting the node are shown below:
NOTE: you only need to run ONE of the commands below to run the node
# run the executable with default settings (without params file)
ros2 run usb_cam usb_cam_node_exe
# run the executable while passing in parameters via a yaml file
ros2 run usb_cam usb_cam_node_exe --ros-args --params-file /path/to/colcon_ws/src/usb_cam/config/params.yaml
# launch the usb_cam executable that loads parameters from the same `usb_cam/config/params.yaml` file as above
# along with an additional image viewer node
ros2 launch usb_cam demo_launch.py
Launching Multiple usb_cam's
To launch multiple nodes at once, simply remap the namespace of each one:
ros2 run usb_cam usb_cam_node_exe --remap __ns:=/usb_cam_0 --params-file /path/to/usb_cam/config/params_0.yaml
ros2 run usb_cam usb_cam_node_exe --remap __ns:=/usb_cam_1 --params-file /path/to/usb_cam/config/params_1.yaml
Compression
Big thanks to the ros2_v4l2_camera
package and their documentation on this topic.
The usb_cam
should support compression by default since it uses image_transport
to publish its images as long as the image_transport_plugins
package is installed on your system. With the plugins installed the usb_cam
package should publish a compressed
topic automatically.
Unfortunately rviz2
and show_image.py
do not support visualizing the compressed images just yet so you will need to republish the compressed image downstream to uncompress it:
ros2 run image_transport republish compressed raw --ros-args --remap in/compressed:=image_raw/compressed --remap out:=image_raw/uncompressed

- Minor bump for release
- Merge pull request #184 from clalancette/clalancette/cleanups

- Use uint32_t to store image sizes. This matches the v4l2 structures, and ensures we don\'t get sign warnings when compiling.
- Merge pull request #178 from benmaidel/feature/unsupported_set_format_options_ros2 [ros2] allow cameras that do not support setting format options via VIDIOC_S_FMT

- Merge pull request #25 from blutack/patch-1 Warn rather than error if framerate can\'t be set
- Warn rather than error if framerate can\'t be set The driver doesn\'t currently work with em28xx based devices as they don\'t allow the framerate to be set directly and the node exits with an error. Changing to a warning allows these devices to be used.
- Update README.md
- Merge pull request #24 from rjw57/do-not-touch-parameters-unless-asked do not modify parameters unless explicitly set
- do not modify parameters unless explicitly set The contrast, saturation, brightness, sharpness and focus parameters were recently added to usb_cam. This caused a regression (sigproc/robotic_surgery#17) whereby the default settings for a webcam are overridden in all cases by the hard-coded defaults in usb_cam. In the absence of a know good set of \"default\" values, leave the parameters unset unless the user has explicitly set them in the launch file.

0.1.13 (2014-12-02)
- Merge pull request #25 from blutack/patch-1 Warn rather than error if framerate can\'t be set
- Warn rather than error if framerate can\'t be set The driver doesn\'t currently work with em28xx based devices as they don\'t allow the framerate to be set directly and the node exits with an error. Changing to a warning allows these devices to be used.
- Update README.md
- Merge pull request #24 from rjw57/do-not-touch-parameters-unless-asked do not modify parameters unless explicitly set
- do not modify parameters unless explicitly set The contrast, saturation, brightness, sharpness and focus parameters were recently added to usb_cam. This caused a regression (sigproc/robotic_surgery#17) whereby the default settings for a webcam are overridden in all cases by the hard-coded defaults in usb_cam. In the absence of a know good set of \"default\" values, leave the parameters unset unless the user has explicitly set them in the launch file.

0.1.13 (2014-12-02)
- Merge pull request #25 from blutack/patch-1 Warn rather than error if framerate can\'t be set
- Warn rather than error if framerate can\'t be set The driver doesn\'t currently work with em28xx based devices as they don\'t allow the framerate to be set directly and the node exits with an error. Changing to a warning allows these devices to be used.
- Update README.md
- Merge pull request #24 from rjw57/do-not-touch-parameters-unless-asked do not modify parameters unless explicitly set
- do not modify parameters unless explicitly set The contrast, saturation, brightness, sharpness and focus parameters were recently added to usb_cam. This caused a regression (sigproc/robotic_surgery#17) whereby the default settings for a webcam are overridden in all cases by the hard-coded defaults in usb_cam. In the absence of a know good set of \"default\" values, leave the parameters unset unless the user has explicitly set them in the launch file.
