Zed mini: zed-ros2-wrapper keeps exiting on Nvidia Jetson Orin Nano

Software ROS2
1

I am currently using the Zed mini camera on my robot with a Jetson Orin Nano with Jetpack 6.0 along with ROS2 Humble.

The ros2 wrapper process keeps on randomly dying with exit codes 6 or 11 most of the times. Here is the error I got during my recent testing:

[ERROR] [zed_wrapper-5]: process has died [pid 6971, exit code -6, cmd '/home/mesa/ros2_ws/install/zed_wrapper/lib/zed_wrapper/zed_wrapper --ros-args -r __node:=zed_node -r __ns:=/zed --params-file /home/mesa/ros2_ws/install/zed_wrapper/share/zed_wrapper/config/common.yaml --params-file /home/mesa/ros2_ws/install/zed_wrapper/share/zed_wrapper/config/zedm.yaml --params-file /tmp/launch_params_elln_nr7'].

[ERROR] [zed_wrapper-4]: process has died [pid 57007, exit code -11, cmd '/home/dbot/ros2_ws/install/zed_wrapper/lib/zed_wrapper/zed_wrapper --ros-args -r __node:=zed_node -r __ns:=/zed --params-file /home/dbot/ros2_ws/install/zed_wrapper/share/zed_wrapper/config/common.yaml --params-file /home/dbot/ros2_ws/install/zed_wrapper/share/zed_wrapper/config/zedm.yaml --params-file /tmp/launch_params_te5lj_4x'].

This issue seems to be random and sometimes happens after 5 minutes of running or sometimes runs a lot longer without dying. I have gotten around it by restarting the ros node when it dies, however we want to use the IMU data from the camera and also use the camera for visual odometry which resets every time the node is restarted.
What could be done to fix this issue ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Rushabh
Welcome to the Stereolabs community.

Please post the full log of the node crashing to provide more information. Please also use the tool to format it and make it more readable:

Hello @Myzhar,

Thank you for your note. I will keep it mind for the next posts.

As for the log, I could not find an associated ros log file when the node crased, however I copied and pasted the terminal outputs in a text file. Please find the same attached to this message.

Hope that helps.

Edit: Apparently new users cannot attach attachments, so how should I send the complete log ? Should I use post it as text and use the formatting ? Asking since the log is quite long. Thanks in advance.
