ROS – working on driver for DepthSense DS325 camera

To give to MyzharBot a better 3D knowledge of the environment I’m working on the integration on ROS of the 3D RGB-D sensor DepthSense DS325 by SoftKinetic.

DS325 is a RGB-D camera based on Time-of-Flight technology.

The driver will be realized such to exploit the power of the Nvidia Jetson TK1 and the heaviest operation will be realized on GPU to take advantage of the 192 CUDA cores.

The driver is at a really early stage, but we can visualize 3D information on Rviz

Full information about the sensor and the source code of the driver are available in the Software section.
