Dependencies

Output images

  • Output images are grayscale 16 bit images.
  • Seek Thermal pixels are coded on 16 bits (0 to 65 535).

In RViz tick the Normalize range option to easily view a thermal image.

Usage

Run the node:

rosrun seek_thermal raw_publisher

CMake variables

  • seek_thermal_ROSMATER_HOSTNAME: Specify to which ROS master the node will connect
  • seek_thermal_TOPIC: Specify the topic on which images will be published

Automatic startup

This setup allows to automatically start the raw_publisher node at startup.

On startup the node waits for ROS master to be available. The node will shut down when the ROS master is not available, systemd will the restart the node.

This way the node is always running / publishing when the ROS master is available.

systemd

sudo cp build/seek_thermal/scripts/ros_seek_thermal.service /etc/systemd/system
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable ros_seek_thermal
sudo systemctl start ros_seek_thermal
