 ====== Realsense2 + ROS ======
-Minimal test setup in ROS containers:
+Minimal test setup in [[documentation:containers|ROS containers]]:
+To allow hardware to work within containers you have to use the option ''use-real'' which will map ''/dev'' inside (for USB communication) and run docker in ''%%--%%priviledged'' mode which will allow the container to have the same priviledges as outside the container for interacting with hardware.
+==== Inside the container ====
 <cli>
-sudo apt install ros-noetic-realsense2-camera
+# Install realsense drivers
-roslaunch realsense2_camera rs_camera.launch
+# Get distribution environment variables

-This should start a ROS node and create suitable topics.
+To get all Robotlab pieces for vision there is a config:
+<cli>
+workspace init minimal_vision.rosinstall
+cd ~/catkin_ws
+catkin build
+workspace shell
+roslaunch vision realsense_d435.launch   # launches a node
+</cli>
+==== Known issues ====
+If you get an error similar to this:
+''failed to open usb interface: 0, error: RS2_USB_STATUS_ACCESS''
+This is known to be fixable by a firmware update of the Realsense D435 camera.
