[simonlynen]

Did you pull the latest changes from master. This should be resolved.

[arpit15]

1)i downloaded zip from this page https://github.com/ethz-asl/ethzasl_ptam.
2)then i went into catkin_ws/src/ethzas_ptam/ptam/thirdparty and typed make
3) then i simply typed catkin_make in my catkin workspace
I don't able to make please help

[simonlynen]

@arpit15 Please just do the normal workflow:

From within catkin_workspace/src

git clone [email protected]:ethz-asl/ethzasl_ptam.git
cd ../ && catkin_make

[arpit15]

thank u it worked.

It would be of great help if somebody could provide with steps or a tutorial so that i can run ptam gui. I was able to run the ptam node however was unable to see anything.

Did you have a look at the tutorials here?
http://wiki.ros.org/ethzasl_ptam/Tutorials

If everything compiled, just run rqt, and add the rqt_ptam plugin to the view.

Yes, I had a looked at that tutorial. However ptam node doesn't run as a general node. I had to run by
./ptam <image_node>.
Secondly, the image shown at the initialization step is not correct. There is something wrong. I encountered this #5. Will implement it tommorow.

This first issue should be the PATH setting issue. Do you set your PTAM path correctly?
Second, you can try the unmerged pull request #17 that convert color image to greyscaleimage.

[fboris]

BTW, if you use catkinized PTAM. The step mentioned by @simonlynen might need to change a little bit.

In catkin_workspace/src

git clone [email protected]:ethz-asl/ethzasl_ptam.git
cd ../
catkin_make
source ./devel/setup.sh

The last step should set your everything about path correctly.

thanks it worked. I was having problem in converting the sensor_msgs to opencv image. Now, its clear.
