How to set up Blackfly S (BFS-PGE-50S5C) camera on Ubuntu 20.0.4 Linux for ROS, summer 2021
  • To use your camera with ROS, you need SDK v1.27.0.48.
    • You can find it here
    • Drivers for ROS can be found here
  • Next - set static IP.
    • After connection throw ethernet, you should set static ip for the correct device:
    • You can check the device using ifconfig
    • Set static ip: ifconfig device_name 169.254.230.91 netmask 255.255.0.0
    • camera IP is 169.254.126.105
  • Problem with Image received from camera ID is incomplete.:
    • ros-drivers/flir_camera_driver#35
    • instead of rewriting driver I recommend to not overheat camera =) it was my mistake, if camera is cold, it much better
    • just comment the 481-501 lines of src/nodelet.cpp file is also Ok (case STOPPED)
  • Problem with default frame rate eq 10
    • camera.launch file, line 37
