Binning and brightness bug

[xepost]

Hi,

I think I find a minor bug. I recently got some pylon cameras, when I was playing with the package I tried to use binning and set the brightness to a set value but it does not seem to work. Ii get the following error message.

[ WARN] [1504852077.113283476]: [] name not valid for camera_info_manger

I change the binning values to binning_x: 1 binning_y: 1 and it starts to work again. Any idea how to fix it?

Thanks!

Thanks for reporting! You're right this is a logical bug which we didn't think about up to now. The mean brightness of the image is calculated by only taking into account a subset of pixel. This subset is represented as a vector of indices. When changing the image size, this index vector is not recalculated and the access leads to above vector-range-error. I'll think about a solution and will push a fix next week.

Hi Marcel,

If I can come up with some other solution before you do I will let you know, but seems unlikely since I am on a tight schedule.

I just finished implementing a solution for this issue, but will test it on monday before releasing it.

I published the changes and would be happy if you can give me some feedback ;-)

Hi Marcel ,

Sorry for the late reply. I have tested with 2 Dart and one Ace model all working fine. My tests were simply compiling and verifying the image acquisition. I will let you know if I can do more tests.
