Package Summary

rawlog_play

Description

This package contains a useful tool for parsing a dataset in MRPT's Rawlog format and emit the corresponding ROS messages to perform simulations.

So, this is an equivalent to rosbag play but for datasets in rawlog format.

Apart from this package, the following non-ROS software exists for handling rawlogs:

  • RawLogViewer: A powerful GUI, useful to quickly visualize the contents of any dataset, modify it, export and import to other formats, etc... See this video on how a RGBD (Kinect) dataset is quickly browsed in this GUI.

  • rawlog-grabber: A command-line standalone program to grab observations from a number of sensors and put all together into a single timestamp-ordered dataset file. Works on GNU/Linux and Windows.

  • rawlog-edit: A command-line equivalent of RawlogViewer for manipulating, filtering, etc. datasets.

  • carmen2rawlog: A command-line tool to import CARMEN logs as Rawlog datasets.

Usage of this package

(The package is still under development, please be patient!)

Data set files

A repository of datasets in this format is available in http://www.mrpt.org/robotic_datasets.
