0.9 (2010-01-11)

image_proc:

• Raw images may now be 8-bit mono, RGB, BGR, or any of the four bayer encodings.
• Now using OpenCV for bayer interpolation.
• Now using image_geometry for rectification.
• Better error reporting when started in global namespace or input topics do not exist.

stereo_image_proc:

• Inherited improvements from image_proc.
• Now using OpenCV's block matching implementation to calculate the disparity image.
• Parameters have changed to more closely follow OpenCV's options.
• Publishing floating-point disparity image.
• No longer publishing image_disparity, use stereo_view for visualization instead.
• REMOVED deprecated stereoproc node and other obsolete files.

image_view:

• stereo_view shows color-mapped disparity image along with left/right.

stereo_msgs:

• New definition of DisparityImage. Disparities are now floating-point, not fixed-point. Better comments.

• REMOVED all deprecated messages (RawStereo, DisparityInfo, StereoInfo).

• Added split_rawstereo.py script to convert RawStereo bags to Image & CameraInfo bags.

camera_calibration:

• GUI improvements.

0.1.1 (2009-12-23)
