# Vision-Based Moving Object

# Warning: This repo has been merged into our project ros2_object_analytics as a function node to detecte the velocity of the objects
# See: https://github.com/intel/ros2_object_analytics!!

## 1. Introduction
Moving Object component is addressing moving objects based on messages generated by
Object Analytics [ros2_object_analytics](https://github.com/intel/ros2_object_analytics).
ros2_moving_object delivers further analysis for the localized and tracked objects from Object Analytics by adding **motion information**, i.e., the **velocity** information about tracked objects. Such information can extend robot's ability of motion planing and collision avoidance.

Thanks to [ros2_object_analytics](https://github.com/intel/ros2_object_analytics) and [ros2_intel_movidius_ncs](https://github.com/intel/ros2_intel_movidius_ncs) to provide an AI solution for object detection, tracking and localization. See [the umbrella wiki page](http://wiki.ros.org/intelrosproject) to learn the hierarchical data flow and overview description for the related components.

This component involves 2 ROS2 packages:
- **moving_object**: the main package covering logic of moving object analysis and information generation.
- **moving_object_msgs**: the message package storing the motion information of moving objects and published into ROS2 system.

## 2. Output Topics

ros2_moving_object package publishes some messages to indicate different status/data.
- **/moving\_object/moving\_objects** merges info from the 3 input messages into one message and calculating (on demand) the velocity info of the tracked moving objects.

## 3. Build and Runtime dependencies

[ros2 core packages](https://github.com/ros2/ros2/wiki/Installation)
- ament_cmake
- std_msgs
- sensor_msgs
- geometry_msgs
- rclcpp

Other packages from Intel repos
* [object\_analytics\_msgs](https://github.com/intel/ros2_object_analytics)
* [object_msgs](https://github.com/intel/ros2_object_msgs)
* [message_filters](https://github.com/intel/ros2_message_filters)

## 4. Build Steps
1. Make sure ros2 core packages are built successfully. Please follow [this guide](https://github.com/ros2/ros2/wiki/Installation) for building and installing ros2 core packages.

2. Make sure [ros2_message_filters](https://github.com/intel/ros2_message_filters) and [ros2_object_analysis_msgs](https://github.com/intel/ros2_object_analytics)) are built and installed successfully. If not, follow below steps (note that the path between < and > should be customized according to your real environment):
```bash
source /local_setup.bash
cd /src
git clone https://github.com/intel/ros2_message_filters.git
git clone https://github.com/intel/ros2_object_analytics.git
cd ..
ament build --symlink-install
```
3. Build Moving Object Component
```bash
cd /src
source /local_setup.bash
git clone https://github.com/intel/ros2_moving_object.git
cd ..
ament build --symlink-install
```

## 5. Launch Steps
1. *[In terminal 1]* Launch realsense camera node.
```bash
source /local_setup.bash
source /install/local_setup.bash
realsense_ros2_camera
```
2. *[In terminal 2]* Launch object analysis node.
```bash
source /local_setup.bash
source /install/local_setup.bash
echo -e "param_file: alexnet.yaml\ninput_topic: /object_analytics/rgb > src/ros2_intel_movidius_ncs/movidius_ncs_launch/config/default.yaml"
launch `ros2 pkg prefix object_analytics_launch`/share/object_analytics_launch/launch/analytics_movidius_ncs.py
```
3. *[In terminal 3]* Launch moving object node.
```bash
source /local_setup.bash
source /install/local_setup.bash
ros2 run moving_object moving_object
```
