Changelog

All notable changes for the packages in the airo-mono repo are documented here.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog. This project uses a CalVer versioning scheme with monthly releases, see here

Unreleased

internal dependencies are now listed as regular dependencies in the setup.py file to overcome issues and make the installation process less complicated. This implies you need to install packages according to their dependencies and can no longer use the external tag as in pip install airo-typing[external]. see issue #91 and PR for more details.
PointCloud dataclass replaces the ColoredPointCloudType to support point cloud attritubes

add method as_single_polygon to combine disconnected parts of a binary mask into a single polygon to the Mask class, useful for data formats that only allow for a single polygon such as YOLO.
PointCloud dataclass as the main data structure for point clouds in airo-mono
Notebooks to get started with point clouds, checking performance and logging to rerun
Functions to crop point clouds, filter points with a mask (e.g. low-confidence points), and transform point clouds
Functions to convert from our numpy-based dataclass to and from open3d point clouds
BoundingBox3DType
Zed2i.ULTRA_DEPTH_MODE to enable the ultra depth setting for the Zed2i cameras
OpenCVVideoCapture implementation of RGBCamera for working with arbitrary cameras
MultiprocessRGBRerunLogger and MultiprocessRGBDRerunLogger now allow you to pass an entity_path value which determines where the RGB and depth images will be logged
MobileRobot and KELORobile interface and subclass added, to control mobile robots via the airo-tulip package

coco-to-yolo conversion now creates a single polygon of all disconnected parts of the mask instead of simply taking the first polygon of the list.
Dropped support for python 3.8 and added 3.11 to the testing matrix #103.
Set python version to 3.10 because of an issue with the ur_rtde wheels #121. Updated README.md to reflect this change.
URrtde will now try connecting to do control interface up to 3 times before raising a RuntimeError.

Fixed bug in get_colored_point_cloud() that removed some points see issue #25.
Fixed bug requiring unplug-and-plug of USB cable for Realsense: see issue #109.
Removed camera imports in airo_camera_toolkit.cameras: see issue #110.
Added __init__.py to realsense and utils in airo_camera_toolkit.cameras, fixing installs with pip and issue #113.
Fixed bug that returned a transposed resolution in MultiprocessRGBReceiver.
Using Zed2i.PERFORMANCE_DEPTH_MODE will now correctly use the performance mode instead of the quality mode.
Shared memory files that were not properly cleaned up are now unlinked and then recreated.
The wait interval for shared memory files has been reduced to .5 seconds (from 5), to speed up application start times.
