Start the sensor service
Syntax:
sensor -c sensor_configuration_file | -d data_configuration_file
-r rollpath
-U uid:gid[,gidx]
[-b board_name]
Options:
- -b board_name
- A string that specifies the name of the board. If this
value isn't specified, the default name is
_CS_MACHINE. This optional parameter is
useful when you need to distinguish a board
from another board.
- -c sensor_configuration_file
-
The sensor configuration file to use. You must specify one of
-c or -d options, or both.
For more information about the sensor configuration file,
see “Sensor configuration file.”
- -d data_configuration_file
- The interim data configuration file to use. You must specify one of
-c or -d options, or both.
For more information about the interim data configuration file, see
“Interim Data configuration file.”
- -r rollpath
- The directory where the sensor service saves files that includes
images (from a camera) and data (from a sensor, such as lidar) files.
- -U uid:gid [,gidx]
- The user ID and the group ID under which to run the sensor service. You can specify multiple groups, where each group is separated by a comma.
The user ID needs to be non-zero because the security protocol is to ensure you do not run as root.
Description:
This command starts the sensor service and
initializes the sensors and cameras specified in the configuration file. When
you run the service, you must specify the location where recorded sensor data
and video files are stored. In addition, you must specify the configuration file to use to initialize the cameras and sensors to use. For more information about the configuration file, see
“Sensor configuration file.”Example:
Provide
access to user and group of 521 to read from
/accounts/1000 (group 1001). The sensor data is set to be stored in the
/accounts/1000/shared/sensor directory (roll) using a
configuration file located at
/etc/system/config/sensor.conf:
# sensor –U 521:521,1001 –r /accounts/1000/shared/sensor \
–c /etc/system/config/sensor.conf &
