REV8 + ROS 2: Native Color Point Clouds in Your Robotics Stack

Rev8 captures 48-bit color and 3D depth in the same photon event, and now every point arrives in your ROS graph born with color. Join our engineering team for a hands-on technical session on integrating native color lidar into your ROS 2 pipeline, running SLAM on Ouster data, and replaying colorized datasets on your own machine.

Live Webinar

Join us for a live demonstration and Q&A on the official Ouster ROS drivers with the Rev8 OS family, the world's first native color lidar sensors. This session covers how to stream native color point clouds in ROS 2, how to run SLAM with ouster-ros, and how to replay recorded PCAP and bag files, so you can follow along with the exact dataset we demo. Register below to attend.

  • Date: September 3, 2026
  • Time: 8:30 AM PDT | 11:30 AM EDT
  • Presenter: Ussama Naal, Senior Staff Engineer, Ouster

What you'll learn:

  1. How native color works in the Ouster ROS 2 drivers: 48-bit RGB point clouds streamed straight from the sensor
  2. How to replay native color PCAP and bag files
  3. How to run SLAM on Ouster data: step-by-step tutorial using an external SLAM package with ouster-ros

Who should attend?

  1. Robotics and Autonomy Engineers building perception pipelines on ROS 1 or ROS 2
  2. Perception Engineers evaluating native color lidar for AV, robotics, and smart infrastructure
  3. SLAM and Mapping Developers working with colorized 3D point clouds
  4. Developers who attended our previous ROS webinar and want the latest, all-new material
