fatal error: sensor_msgs/SnapshotImage.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated.

I run $ catkin_make --only-pkg-with-deps ptgrey_bfly_camera in my rosworkspace.

But the problem occurred:

Could you give me some suggestions?

Hi @aihanb

In several applications we have found that there is no need to keep streaming an image when a snaphot has been already taken. This way, the network, PC, and everything is nor overloaded, specially with 3D cameras.

So we added a service call SnapshotImage to do exactly that, take a snapshot. Thus, you'd need our fork version of the common_msgs package.

If you find that change useful for your use-case and you would like to have it mainstream, we already suggested the change in ros/common_msgs#105 that you can support.

See if that solves your build problems.

Hello @carlosjoserg

Thanks for your reply, it does work.
But another problem occurred, after running $ roslaunch ptgrey_bfly_camera ptgrey_bfly_camera.launch

process[rviz-2]: started with pid [32437]
BflyCamera::Device::Device()`

Hi @aihanb

ERROR: GigE camera not found

It looks like an error due to bad install / config of the PointGrey SDK, or connection.

I found that this driver was connected to the GigE camera, actually, my camera is Black Fly U3.

Can you describe the steps, models and version you have?

Best,
