[PlayerStage-Gazebo] RE: [Playerstage-users] reading camera image frames from gazebo

directly.  Is this the right approach?  Also, I am using the blobfinder
interface with cmvision as the driver and camera  as the capture.

Right now, the client libraries (both C++ AND C) for the camera do not =
work in CVS.  This is due to some memory allocation problems.  I've =
worked through it, and was planning on submitting a patch sometime mid =
next week (when I get back home).  There's some discussion on this in =
the developer forum under "[Playerstage-developers] --enable-bigmess =
yields big mess :)"

If you want to do vision work, it's best to do that on the server side.  =
Otherwise, you have to pass large amounts of image data over the =
network, which is slow.  You'll have to deal with Player internals a =
little more but your code will run better.
