How to detect the camera without going to root user ? #186

Closed Abduoit closed 4 years ago

Abduoit commented 5 years ago

HI I could detect the chameleon3pointgrey camera. I did this only with root user as following

sudo su
source /opt/ros/indigo/setup.bash
rosrun pointgrey_camera_driver list_cameras

My question is how can I detect the camera without going to root user ? when I try to detect I got this

abdu@abdu-uoit:~$ rosrun pointgrey_camera_driver list_cameras
No PointGrey cameras detected on this computer.

Note that you may need to restart udev and replug your camera, eg:
  sudo service udev restart

Do you have the correct udev rules installed for your non-root user?
