ADBSCAN Algorithm with Intel® RealSense™ Camera Input Demo

This tutorial describes how to run the ADBSCAN algorithm from Intel® RealSense™ camera input.

It outputs to the obstacle_array topic of type nav2_dynamic_msgs/ObstacleArray.

Install

Install ros-humble-adbscan-ros2 Deb package from Intel® Robotics SDK APT repository

sudo apt update
sudo apt install ros-humble-adbscan-ros2
Copy to clipboard

Install the following package with ROS 2 bag files in order to publish point cloud data from 2D LIDAR or Intel® RealSense™ camera

sudo apt install ros-humble-bagfile-laser-pointcloud
Copy to clipboard

Run the demo with Intel® RealSense™

sudo chmod +x /opt/ros/humble/share/adbscan_ros2/scripts/demo_RS.sh
/opt/ros/humble/share/adbscan_ros2/scripts/demo_RS.sh
Copy to clipboard

Expected result: ROS 2 rviz2 starts, and you will see how ADBSCAN interprets Intel® RealSense™ data coming from the ROS 2 bag:
