7. Lab7: Camera Calibration

if some of you guys want to debug in your own laptop, it is recommended to install ubuntu and ROS. Here show you some basic procedures.

1. Download VMware Workstation here. Other virtual machine software (like VirtualBox) is fine. Recommended version: 16 Pro or 15 Pro.
2. Install it and activate license by yourself.

1. Download ubuntu Desktop image (.iso) in official website here or Tsinghua Mirror.
2. Open VMware and create a new virtual machine.
3. Follow the steps in install.md in reference folder.

• modify lab6_manual and lab7_manual
• integrate camera snapshot into ROS for convenience
• install camera dependency on Virtual machine
• lab4 manual error, return value
• lab7: rosrun relative path error
• lab7: ur3e no fresh data when use ckcamera
• lab7: response very slow when calling opencv_display()
