Getting blackfly cameras to work with WLS2

Hey,

I am trying to use BLACKFLY GigE cameras with ROS1 installed on Ubuntu 20.04 on WSL2. I am able to ping the camera's ip-address from WSL2 but the SPINVIEW doesn't detect any cameras and the ROS node isnt able to detect any cameras either.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks

  Hello Akshay, 
  
  I'm afraid we do not support running Spinnaker inside WSL2. Since you can ping the camera, my guess is that the discovery command broadcast sent by Spinnaker to discover the camera is not routed to the host network. Maybe you can verify this using Wireshark. 

  Best regards,

  Manuel
