<> == Documentation == `image_transport_plugins` contains plugins to [[image_transport]] for sending <> topics in compressed representations. Its contents include: * [[compressed_image_transport]] is a plugin providing JPEG and PNG compression of still images. Most useful for low-framerate/discontinuous image sources (e.g. a polled camera), or when lossless compression (PNG) is required. * [[theora_image_transport]] is a plugin that compressed image topics using the Theora video codec. Useful for live video feeds. {{{#!wiki version cturtle_and_older * [[libtheora]] ([[http://www.theora.org]]) is the open source Theora video codec. }}} These transports will only be available if the plugins are built on your system! On Ubuntu, they are included in the `ros--image-transport-plugins` deb for each distribution. If building from source, you must explicitly build the `image_transport_plugins` stack. == Stability == As of Diamondback, this stack has a stable ROS API. == Report a Bug == <> ## AUTOGENERATED DON'T DELETE ## CategoryStack ## CategoryStackROSPKG
