Revision history [back]

I had the same issue as astra pro is what came with my Turtlebot 2 that I ordered from Clearpath Robotics.

My setup: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS running ROS Indigo

The launch package that allowed me to have both depth and rgb is astra_pro.launch found here: https://github.com/clearpathrobotics/ros_astra_launch/tree/upstream/launch

The help at clearpath was superb! Directions I received are as follows(You can edit the directories as you wish of course):

mkdir -p turtlebot_ws/src
cd turtlebot_ws/src
catkin_init_ws
git clone https://github.com/tonybaltovski/ros_astra_launch.git --branch upstream
git clone https://github.com/tonybaltovski/ros_astra_camera.git --branch upstream
cd ..
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro=indigo -y
catkin_make
source devel/setup.bash
rosrun astra_camera create_udev_rules
(you may need to reboot here)
roslaunch astra_launch astra_pro.launch
