Multiple resolutions during runtime #328

Closed salokin1997 closed 2 years ago

salokin1997 commented 2 years ago

Hello,

I would like to publish image-topics with multiple resolutions from camera at the same time. The aim is to create a multi-scale image pyramid from images with different resolutions. Is this possible?

Many thanks!

Hey @salokin1997, I am not sure if I understood the question right. We do only provide images in a specific resolution. You can switch between two resolutions. But we do not send both resolutions at the same time. This is due to the fact that the higher resolution does need more compute than the lower one. In case we would do provide both the framerate will drop significantly. May I ask what framerate you are looking for?

Thank you for the answer @graugans, I think you have understood my question correctly. We need a frame rate of 10 FPS or more. Would it be a high effort to adjust the code to make that possible?

We do not have any plans to expose both resolutions within the firmware at the moment.
