Obtaining camera feed from built-in uEye camera #10

Closed jvdtoorn closed 2 years ago

jvdtoorn commented 3 years ago

First of all, thanks for developing this ROS driver, it works very well.

Now I would like to process the camera feed of the uEye camera on ROS as well. How can I setup the TM arm to broadcast its camera feed? Having the ability to query to current picture would also suffice. I see some images in the figures/ tab about connecting the camera feed to an external API, but I see no documentation of this.

There is some documentation related to this in the ROS2 driver.

@exwzd-kk thanks for your reply, that documentation is helpful. Unfortunately it looks like it is not possible to receive a live feed with this method, only individual images over a JSON API.
