SLAM Problem

[yunzc]

Has people gotten the demo SLAM code to work with a physical Realsense? It doesn't work for me, there are no errors shown, but it's just not mapping.
Looking through the code I am a little confused by this line in setup_demo.launch

Why is the base_link statically linked with odom? (and odom is linked to map)

Also sometimes in rviz I would get the following error with accel.: "For frame [imu_accel_frame_id]: Frame [imu_accel_frame_id] does not exist"
Sorry I might be missing something obvious here.
Thanks in advance!

Hi @yunzc ,
I'm curious about how you got the slam demo work ?
I use R200 camera and work fine with other packages like person or object . However,when I run roslaunch realsense_ros_slam demo_slam.launch ,I can see nothing in the RVIZ and with a warring in the left panel:

Hmm I used the ZR300 camera instead of the R200, have you checked if this package is compatible with the R200?

Hi @yunzc ,
Uforturnately , the slam package dosent support R200 . too bad.
