We (Robotics section of Debian Science team) are packaging ROS (Robot OS: http://www.ros.org/) for Debian. ROS uses many packages already in Debian, but also has a set of core/toolchain/build-system packages which are not yet uploaded. This package is part of that ROS system. Most of the packaging work is already done, and available at http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-science/packages/ros/ Package name : ros-image-common Version : 1.11.7 URL : http://www.ros.org/wiki/image_common License : BSD-3-clause Programming Lang: C++ Description : Robot OS camera and image libraries This package is part of Robot OS (ROS). It contains several ROS packages for working with images: camera_info_manager, camera_calibration_parsers, polled_camera, and image_transport. . camera_info_manager provides a C++ interface for camera calibration information. It provides CameraInfo, and handles SetCameraInfo service requests, saving and restoring the camera calibration data. . camera_calibration_parsers contains routines for reading and writing camera calibration parameters . polled_camera contains a service and C++ helper classes for implementing a polled camera driver node and requesting images from it. The package is currently for internal use as the API is still under development. C++, python and LISP bindings are provided. . image_transport should always be used to subscribe to and publish images. It provides transparent support for transporting images in low-bandwidth compressed formats.
