Hi @ stevensu1838 :) You known as intel discontinued the Joule™ 570x, So we sell waffle_Pi with Raspberry pi. But, you want to use 3D camera. I recommend using upboard.
Thanks for your interesting about Openmanipulator. Maybe you can buy it in September. There are 3D print the link parts you wanted follow link. http://emanual.robotis.com/docs/en/platform/openmanipulator/#hardware-setup
Thanks, Gilbert
Lost inside Intel's sites hierachy, there is an offer for a pretty cheap kit including both the Up! board and the sensor : https://click.intel.com/intelr-realsensetm-robotic-development-kit-2622.html It is not the best sensor on the market but I think it can be a good start :-)
Hi both, Thanks a lot for your advice. I've got a NUC pc anD will try to put it on the robot. My purpose is to do Octomap with my Tutlebot3 with Kinect. (I've done the Octomap with Turtlebot2 successfully.)My question is do you think the Octomap map can be done with my Turtlebot3(NUC PC and Kinect sensor on board)? And Is the process (like command lines)much different from Turtlebot2? Thanks a lot
Hi Gilbert, Please find the linked website I used to do Octomap with Turtlebot2, can you please kindly tell me How can I use It with Turtlebot3 with NUC and Kinect on board? Thanks a lot.

Hi :)
After bringup turtlebot3 properly, you can use same launch commands when you used to do Octomap with TurtleBot2. Please try it first and ask question when you face problems.
Furthermore, OpenManipulator will be released soon. You can buy it this fall or winter.
Hi Gilbert, Thanks lot for your advice. Right now I am following the following tutorial for 3D Visualization with turtlebot2 to visualize with my turtlebot3 and Kinect sensor(our ultimate target is to do Octomap). My question is for turtlebot3, we don't have turtlebot_bringup 3dsensor.launch file. How shall I turn on all the sensor processing modules as the default? Secondly, for turtlebot2, we need to set the environmental variables for the Kinect sensors are as follows: export KINECT_DRIVER=freenectexport TURTLEBOT_3D_SENSOR=kinect Do I need to do this kind of seting up for Turtlebot3? Thank you so much for your help. After I figure it out completely, I would right a tutorial to share my experience to reduce your workload on explaining 3D Visualization with turtlebot3. Thank you again.
The following is part of the tutorial I am follwoing: Visual data using rviz with Turtlebot
To visualize the 3D sensor data from the TurtleBot using rviz, begin by launching the TurtleBot minimal launch software. Next, a second terminal window should be opened to start the launch software for the 3D sensor:
Terminal Window 1: Minimal launch of TurtleBot:
$ ssh
It is typically not desirable to generate so much sensor data for an application. The 3dsensor.launch file allows users to set arguments to minimize the amount of sensor data generated. Typically, TurtleBot applications only turn on the sensor data needed in order to minimize the amount of processing performed. This is done by setting selected roslaunch arguments to false when particular sensor data is not needed.
Next, launch rviz to allow various forms of visualization data to be seen. Terminal Window 3: View sensor data on rviz: $ roslaunch turtlebot_rviz_launchers view_robot.launch
I don't know well about the turtlebot2, because we are releases the turtlebot3. But if you want to use 3d camera, I think turtlebot2 or turtlebot3 is not important. You can make a 3d map using kinect package.
Hi sir, I followed you instructions to use Kinect with Rivz for 3D vision on turtlebot3. You have to install freenect packages for using kinect. $ sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-freenect* and run the camera. $ roslaunch freenect_launch freenect.launch
I followed you advice above on how to use Kinect with Rviz for 3D vision and I've got point cloud image in Rivz. However the camera_link is always on the ground. How can I move the camare_link up? Coz I want to put the Kinect onto my mobile robot turtlebot3. The camera_link should be above the ground for sure. Thanks a lot for your help. Cheers. Please check it out with the link below. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pjWWA7cQOWE-Kx8VVUVsX6sC9qukOHOC/view?usp=sharing
Secondly, right now in Fixed Frame in Rviz I have only links about the camera suck as camera_rgb_frame, how can I get also the turtlebot3 links here? By doing $ roslaunch turtlebot3_fake turtlebot3_fake.launch?
I mean I want to have both the links of the Kinect and turtlebot3. Thank you so much for your help. I am almost there. Thank you with no end.

You can make the camera link to set urdf file in turtlebot3_description
package.
or you can make static transform publisher by tf packages
Hi Sir, Thank you so much for your help. It is hard for me as a begginner to write my own camera link. So I copied Waffle's camera link part and set it Burger's urdf file in turtlebot3_description package. And it gives me camera link(but I use this link for Kinect) in Rviz for turtlebot3 as I expected. Also, I could see the point could very well. However, when I adjust the Kinect to make it look down onto the floor, the point cloud image of the floor goes up into the air. I mean they move in the opposite way. Can you please tell me how to fix it? Thank you so much for your support. Steven

Hi team, I am planning to update my Burger to a Waffle. Coz I think it will be more powerful to support a 3D camera(I might be wrong). So I want to buy an Intel® Joule™ 570x, but Intel discontinued the products. My question is do I sill try to buy a Joule or I have other options as the onboard PC? What is your plan? Secondly, I also wanna buy an Openmanipulator. Will you sell it as a whole thing SOON or I still need to 3D print the link parts. Thanks a lot.
