Mono Camera
[Models]

The MonoCam model simulates a simple (generic) monocular camera.

libgazebo interfaces

This model supports the camera interfaces.

Player drivers

Image data is available through the gz_camera driver.

Attributes

The following attributes are supported.

id (string)
- The model ID string (used by libgazebo to identify models).
- Default: (empty)

xyz (float tuple, meters)
- Model position (x, y, z, in meters).
- Default: 0 0 0

rpy (float tuple, degrees)
- Model orientation in Euler angles: roll, pitch, yaw.
- Default: 0 0 0

gravity (bool)
- Enable/disable effect of gravity on this model
- Default: true

enable (bool)
- Enable/disable the model's bodies (so it doesn't fall, for example)
- Default: true

savePath (string, path)
- Directory for saving image frames.
- Default: .

saveFrames (bool)
- Set to true to save image frames.
- Default: false

useFrustrum (bool)
- Create a frustrum to provide user feedback in the ObserveCam.
- Default: true

Bodies
