   :alt: demo of pyramids

Usage
-----

.. code-block:: bash

   # ROS 2
   ros2 launch opencv_apps pyramids.launch.xml image:=/camera/image_raw debug_view:=false
   # ROS 1
   roslaunch opencv_apps pyramids.launch image:=/camera/image_raw debug_view:=false

Try it with the demo video
--------------------------

Download the input video of the demo above, publish it as ``image`` with ``image_publisher``, and run the node on it, in the terminals:

.. code-block:: bash

   wget https://ros-perception.github.io/opencv_apps/media/clips/street.mp4
   # terminal 1: publish the video as image in a loop
   ros2 run image_publisher image_publisher_node street.mp4 --ros-args -p publish_rate:=10.0 -r image_raw:=image
   # terminal 2: run the node with the parameters of the demo
   ros2 launch opencv_apps pyramids.launch.xml image:=image node_name:=pyramids_zoomout_2 num_of_pyramids:=2 pyramids_type:=1
   # terminal 3: view the result
   ros2 run rqt_image_view rqt_image_view /pyramids_zoomout_2/image

Zoom out twice.

In ROS 1:

.. code-block:: bash

   # terminal 1
   rosrun image_publisher image_publisher street.mp4 _publish_rate:=10 __name:=camera
   # terminal 2
   roslaunch opencv_apps pyramids.launch image:=camera/image_raw node_name:=pyramids_zoomout_2 num_of_pyramids:=2 pyramids_type:=1
