Got the code to run after a few days of struggling.

  1. libuvc_camera doesn't set the proper timestamps for its ROS messages, confusing the VO node because there is evidently no time deltas between the frames. I added a check for time zero, then assume the frame is from right now.
  2. There was something very wonky going on with the way some small getter functions were defined in the header frame_handler_mono.h, they somehow returned NULL values. I don't know what that was about; likely a linking-related issue as the header would be compiled into svo_ros's binary, whereas the object file resulting from the implementation would end up in the libsvo dynamic library.
  3. I added install directives where necessary as I use an install-only workspace (ROS on macOS requires this.)

So basically, I got this to work on macOS.

I also added a launch file for launching the SVO stuff together with two ways of running a webcam, for easy testing. Thought others might find it useful.
