8UC1 provided need mono8 #17

Closed tabelh closed 5 years ago

Hello I am trying to use this driver for the ensenso camera, the package that i intend to use it with accepts mono8 encoding, however, the camera provides 8UC1. Is this something that can be altered? I have been looking for conversion methods but that does not seem to be possible as 8UC1 is not a color format. I am subscribing to the /rectified/left/image topic. Would I need to use a different one? Or do you perhaps know of a method to convert the data?

Thanks in advance!

The two formats are equivalent and contain the same data. It seems like mono8 is more popular in ROS, though (see e.g. intel-ros/realsense#253), so I changed it.
