Interfacing the Intel RealSense camera with ROS

One of the new 3D depth sensors from Intel is RealSense. At the time of writing, different versions of this sensor have been released (LIDAR camera L515, D400 family, D435, T265, F200, R200, and SR30). To interface RealSense sensors with ROS, we must install the librealsense library.

You can install the librealsense library using the apt package manager. Detailed instructions for setting up this library can be found at https://github.com/IntelRealSense/librealsense/blob/master/doc/distribution_linux.md.

We can also build the librealsense library from source code manually. Let's learn how to install the library.

Download the RealSense SDK (https://www.intelrealsense.com/sdk-2/) from the following link: https://github.com/IntelRealSense/librealsense/blob/master/doc/installation.md.

After installing the RealSense library, we must install the ROS wrapper (https://dev.intelrealsense.com/docs/ros-wrapper) to start sensor data...
