Multiple Cameras using RSUSB Backend #3285
Comments
Update - I tried running 2 Intel cameras and the motor controller on Windows and the system freezes there as well. Only way to recover is to do a hard power reset. |
Hi @kushal2507 The same problem with freezing when using two RealSense cameras with ROS and a motor controller has been discussed in a currently open case at IntelRealSense/librealsense#13656 Whilst that issue is not resolved and the case is still ongoing at the time of writing this, it may provide useful insights for your own situation. |
hi @MartyG-RealSense I can confirm I am experiencing the same issue. Is what I am trying to do with the RSUSB backend method possible? Can I try some other steps? |
In the linked case, the users there also found that two cameras and a controller worked on an older 10th Gen PC but not on newer 13th Gen PCs. The RSUSB Backend installation method is designed for use with a single camera. The best installation method for a multicam project is to build the SDK from source code without using the RSUSB Backend (i.e RSUSB = false) and apply a patch to the kernel. In librealsense 2.56.2, the patch-realsense-ubuntu-lts-hwe.sh patch script was updated with support for kernel 6.8 and Ubuntu 24.04. |
Issue Description
I have installed the librealsense SDK using the method described here. I am being able to launch only 1 camera out of the 2. This the terminal output
I have been experiencing random PC freezing when running 2 intel d435i cameras along with a motor controller. These issues do not come up when running with 1 camera or with non realsense cameras (multiple). I have tried a different motor controller and the freeze still happens which got me to conclude that it was something with the intel cameras. This was not happening on an older (I think 10th gen) PC so I figured it was something kernel related. I am currently running on a 13th Gen i7-13700. This is why I decided to try and use the RSUSB backend method which supposedly bypasses the kernel drivers. But I am not being able to run multiple cameras through that. I have no issues running a single camera.
Can I get some help please. Thank you!
