rviz_cinematographer
An rqt plugin for creating and editing camera trajectories in RViz and recording videos of the views.
What is rviz_cinematographer?
Rviz Cinematographer is an rqt plugin for ROS that allows users to create and edit camera trajectories in RViz and record videos of these views. It solves the problem of manually animating camera movements for demonstrations, tutorials, or visualizations in robotic simulations by providing a dedicated tool for smooth, programmable camera paths.
ROS developers and researchers who need to create visualizations, tutorials, or demonstrations of robotic environments using RViz, particularly those requiring controlled camera animations.
It offers a specialized, integrated solution within the ROS ecosystem for camera trajectory creation and video recording, saving time compared to manual methods and providing professional output with customizable watermarks.
Overview
Easy to use tools to create and edit trajectories for the rviz camera.
Use Cases
Best For
- Creating tutorial videos for ROS-based robotic simulations
- Demonstrating robotic environments with controlled camera movements
