Hey all,
Im quite new to ROS, did a lot of tutorial stuff lately and didn't find an answer in the answers database.
My program has 2 frames. A fixed "world" frame and a "ego" frame, that is moving within the fixed one. Rviz is set up with a .rviz config file. Now I wonna know, if it's possible to focus the camera on the moving frame and update camera every time the moving frame changes relatively to the fixed frame. If yes, do I have to modify my .rviz config file or my program?
I think these are the important lines of my .rviz config file:
Views:
Current:
Class: rviz/Orbit
Distance: 139.139
Focal Point:
X: -1.5004
Y: 59.5032
Z: -26.4407
Name: Current View
Near Clip Distance: 0.01
Pitch: 0.839797
Target Frame: <Fixed Frame>
Value: Orbit (rviz)
Yaw: 5.10348
edit Thanks for your answers so far. But It turned out i meant something different to what I explained ^^ I dont want to move things relative to the ego frame. I still want to target the world frame, but tell rviz to set the focal point according to the ego frame that is moving within the world frame.
I found the documentation of the rviz::VisualizationManager that controls the visualization of rviz:
For example, there's rviz::ViewController with a method lookAt(float x, float y, float z) or rviz::OrbitViewController with a method move(float x, float y, float z) that might work in this case, but I don't quite find a way to use these in my program.
Got any ideas on that?
Thanks in advance!
