How to install ‘nvblox_rviz_plugin/NvbloxMesh’ in a non nvidia environment

Hi,I was wondering if there is a way to get the nvblox mesh shown on rviz2 on a system without a NVIDIA graphics card , Because iam getting this error:

[ERROR] [1727802980.069929768] [rviz2]: PluginlibFactory: The plugin for class ‘nvblox_rviz_plugin/NvbloxMesh’ failed to load. Error: According to the loaded plugin descriptions the class nvblox_rviz_plugin/NvbloxMesh with base class type rviz_common::Display does not exist. Declared types are rviz_default_plugins/AccelStamped rviz_default_plugins/Axes rviz_default_plugins/Camera rviz_default_plugins/DepthCloud rviz_default_plugins/Effort rviz_default_plugins/FluidPressure rviz_default_plugins/Grid rviz_default_plugins/GridCells rviz_default_plugins/Illuminance rviz_default_plugins/Image rviz_default_plugins/InteractiveMarkers rviz_default_plugins/LaserScan rviz_default_plugins/Map rviz_default_plugins/Marker rviz_default_plugins/MarkerArray rviz_default_plugins/Odometry rviz_default_plugins/Path rviz_default_plugins/PointCloud rviz_default_plugins/PointCloud2 rviz_default_plugins/PointStamped rviz_default_plugins/Polygon rviz_default_plugins/Pose rviz_default_plugins/PoseArray rviz_default_plugins/PoseWithCovariance rviz_default_plugins/Range rviz_default_plugins/RelativeHumidity rviz_default_plugins/RobotModel rviz_default_plugins/TF rviz_default_plugins/Temperature rviz_default_plugins/TwistStamped rviz_default_plugins/Wrench

But when i tried to install nvblox on this system i cant build it or install it because of some CUDA errors which i believe is just for NVIDIA Cards.

Hi @flavionzambi

I didn’t take the test, but I think you can do it.
You need to build the nvblox_rviz_plugin package

Try to add on your workspace the nvblox repo and build:

colcon build --packages-up-to nvblox_rviz_plugin

After that, load the sources and reload rviz. This plugin should be available on your machine.

Let me know.
