MID 360 LiDAR Integration in ROS2 #55

Closed Prabuddhi-05 closed 9 months ago

Prabuddhi-05 commented 9 months ago

I am currently working on integrating the MID 360 LiDAR into a ROS 2 environment. I have successfully operated the LiDAR with Windows application and ROS1.

Here's a brief overview of my setup and the problem I'm facing:

Setup Details: Host IP: 192.168.1.50 LiDAR IP: 192.168.1.102

IPs

ROS 2 Environment: OS: Ubuntu 22.04 ROS 2 Distribution: Humble

Software Installation: Installed Livox SDK 2 from https://github.com/Livox-SDK/Livox-SDK2 Installed livox_ros_driver2 from https://github.com/Livox-SDK/livox_ros_driver2

Configuration: Edited the IP addresses for both the host and LiDAR in the MID360_config.json file to match the IP settings.

Problem Description: When I launch the rviz_MID360_launch.py script, which is intended to configure RViz for visualizing LiDAR data, I encounter an issue: the point cloud is not displayed in RViz.

I've performed various checks, such as verifying network connectivity, and ensuring the accuracy of the IP configuration. However, I haven't been able to resolve the issue on my own.

The issue was resolved by turning off the firewall to ensure that some of the ports were no longer blocked.
