This pull request introduces significant documentation, CI, and performance-related improvements for the Depth Anything 3 ROS2 wrapper project. The most notable changes include a major performance boost through shared memory inference, extensive documentation clarifications, acknowledgements updates, and enhancements to the CI pipeline and linting configuration.

Performance and Architecture Improvements:

  • Implemented a new shared memory inference service (scripts/trt_inference_service_shm.py) using RAM-backed IPC via /dev/shm/da3, resulting in a 4x performance improvement (23+ FPS, up to 43+ FPS processing capacity), with zero-copy data transfer and automatic fallback to file-based IPC if needed. (CHANGELOG.md CHANGELOG.mdL3-R50)
  • Added SharedMemoryInferenceFast class and auto-detection logic in the main node to seamlessly select the fastest available inference backend. (CHANGELOG.md CHANGELOG.mdL3-R50)

Documentation and Acknowledgements:

  • Updated README.md and the changelog with a "Production Architecture" section, clarified TensorRT as the production backend, and improved explanations of host-container split and fallback modes. (CHANGELOG.md CHANGELOG.mdL3-R50)
  • Expanded ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.md to credit Depth Anything 3, ByteDance Seed Team, NVIDIA TensorRT, Jetson Containers, Hugging Face, and clarified the role of PyTorch and Docker images. (ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.md [1] [2]

CI/CD and Linting Enhancements:

  • Improved the CI workflow by renaming steps, refining the installation and execution of linters, and adding comments about ROS2 test requirements. (.github/workflows/ci.yml [1] [2] [3]
  • Added a .markdownlint.json file to customize markdown linting rules for documentation consistency. (.markdownlint.json .markdownlint.jsonR1-R12)

Other Notable Updates:

  • Removed the .github/copilot-instructions.md file, possibly to reduce redundancy or outdated guidance.
  • Updated the changelog to reflect new releases, bug fixes, and previous improvements for better project tracking. (CHANGELOG.md CHANGELOG.mdR168-R211)

These changes collectively enhance performance, developer experience, and documentation quality, while clarifying the project's architecture and dependencies.

The node now checks for /dev/shm/da3/status to auto-select the fast
RAM-backed shared memory backend vs file-based IPC.
