Hello all;
I have recently purchased an Orbbec Astra Pro sensor as a substitute for the difficult to get Asus Xtion Pro Live. I have installed astra_launch and astra_camera packages. As the sensor was not recognized, I have also run the install.sh script from the astra_camera source code in GitHub.
Now, when I run the sensor with roslaunch astra_launch astra.launch
the sensor is recognized and in Rviz, I can see depth images, ir_images and pointclouds, but I do not receive RGB images.
The topics corresponding to the RGB images are present, but they are not publishing anything.
Is this problem known? Any way to solve it?
I would appreciate any kind of advise or help...
Best regards,
Alberto

Just purchased a Turtlebot 2 from Clearpath Robotics. It came with the Astra sensor installed. However, I too am having trouble with RGB images as described above.
When I use image_view I do not have an rgb image available.
