I connected a kinect(Depth) camera to Labro example in Gazibo simulation environment. Output of the depth image and camera image can be visualize via rqt_gui, however when I try to visualize PointCloud, Depth camera output through rviz it gives following error.

Transform [sender=unknown_publisher]
For frame [kinect_depth_optical_frame]: Frame [kinect_depth_optical_frame] does not exist

I'm trying to get PointCloud data from depth camera and feed it to Octomap Server, then to generate a 3D map.

Following is the modified Labrob code. <?xml version="1.0"?>
