Technical Specifications ​

Quick Setup ​

Quick start guide for the olive® Camera module:

1. Install ROS2 (https://docs.ros.org/en/humble/index.html) on your host computer. This will provide the necessary tools and libraries to communicate with the Olive Robotics modules.

2. Connect the Olive Robotics modules to your host computer using the USB Type C cables.

3. Check if your compueter asigns an IP address to your component. This may take up to 30~60 seconds. Each module ships with a defauld static IP address asigned to it. The defauls address for smart components is 10.42.0.7 and can be changed later via the web interface.

   • You can check the if the connection is stablished or not in two ways:

     1. ping the device using the following command in your terminal:

        ping 10.42.0.7

        ping 10.42.0.7

        and if the module is connected successfully, you should see something like this:

        PING 10.42.0.7 (10.42.0.7) 56(84) bytes of data.
        64 bytes from 10.42.0.7: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.402 ms
        64 bytes from 10.42.0.7: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.371 ms
        64 bytes from 10.42.0.7: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.397 ms
        64 bytes from 10.42.0.7: icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=0.398 ms

        PING 10.42.0.7 (10.42.0.7) 56(84) bytes of data.
        64 bytes from 10.42.0.7: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.402 ms
        64 bytes from 10.42.0.7: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.371 ms
        64 bytes from 10.42.0.7: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.397 ms
        64 bytes from 10.42.0.7: icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=0.398 ms

     2. Check if the network adapter is attached and recognized by your host computer.

        ifconfig

        ifconfig

        and if the device is recognized successfully, you should see something like this:

        enxd8de9b838d35: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
                inet 10.42.0.79  netmask 255.255.255.0  broadcast 10.42.0.255
                inet6 fe80::ef0a:e686:27aa:6307  prefixlen 64  scopeid 0x20<link>
                ether d8:de:9b:83:8d:35  txqueuelen 1000  (Ethernet)

        enxd8de9b838d35: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
                inet 10.42.0.79  netmask 255.255.255.0  broadcast 10.42.0.255

                TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0

4. Check if the data is alreaddy published to your system using:

   ros2 topic list

   ros2 topic list

   you should be able to see all the topics published from the module. For exampe for IMU module you will see:

   /olive/imu/x1681709875/image/camera_info
   /olive/imu/x1681709875/image/compressed
   /olive/imu/x1681709875/status
   /olive/imu/x1681709875/switch
   /olive/imu/x1681709875/led
   /parameter_events
   /rosout

   /olive/imu/x1681709875/image/camera_info
   /olive/imu/x1681709875/image/compressed
   /olive/imu/x1681709875/status
   /olive/imu/x1681709875/switch
   /olive/imu/x1681709875/led
   /parameter_events
   /rosout

5. Visualize the data using:

   1. Embedded Web Interface (https://docs.olive-robotics.com/software/gui/gui.html)

   2. rqt (https://docs.ros.org/en/humble/Tutorials/Beginner-CLI-Tools/Introducing-Turtlesim/Introducing-Turtlesim.html#install-rqt)

      • Visualize the topics:

      • Visualize the Image:

      • Change the parameters of the DCM:

6. Visualize the data and change the parameters like IP, Topic Name, etc using the embedded web interface. You just need to open your browser on your host computer and enter the IP address of the device. If you didn't change the IP address, then it must be 10.42.0.7.

Advanced Settings ​

The device allows certain parameters to be changed at runtime. To get an overview of all changeable parameters use ros2 param list. To change a parameter use ros2 param set /dcm_camera <parameter> <new_value>
