Q. How can I record rosbag file?

A.

  • Go to the menu SENSR > Replay > Record
    1. Record Points The Record file will include the Ground, background and objects points. But if you do not, it has just information related to objects. It will produce “Filename.tar.gz” files
    2. Record Rosbag SENSR will produce “algo_XXX.bags” file in the project file with the new folder named “Record_Filename_rosbags”

The .tar.gz file replays the situation as it is when the runtime is started. However, the .tar.gz file itself does not contain raw data, and raw data must be used in a rosbag.

  • Or you can record Rosbag in terminal
    1. Open a new terminal (ctrl+alt+t)
    2. Type rosbag record -a
    3. To terminate rosbag recording: ctrl+c
    4. Rosbag file is located at the current folder

Q. Which outputs does SENSR have?

A. Live data stream(TCP and Websocket). You can check SDK sample code from here

We also provide JavaScript and Python interfaces inside the SDK to easily work with SENSR output in those languages. For more information on how to use JavaScript and Python, please refer to the relevant readme in the SDK repository.

Q. How to interpret x and y value of velocity elements(SDK)?

A. For example, if you have the x and y value like below, x: -10.330358505249023 y: -0.5107154250144958

The velocity(≈speed) is sqrt(xx + yy) And the angle(≈direction) is atan2(y, x) So -10 m/s and -0.5m/s are just the x and y components of the velocity.
