Hi,

I have a problem with monoodometry fron viso2. The node does publish the odometry topic properly but I get this message. Notice the missing / at camerargbopticalframe.

[ WARN] [1506074144.964462965]: The tf from '/base_link' to 'camera_rgb_optical_frame' does not seem to be available, will assume it as identity!

But a valid tf transform from baselink to camerargbopticalframe is being published:

$ rosrun tf tf_monitor base_link camera_rgb_optical_frame 
RESULTS: for base_link to camera_rgb_optical_frame
**Chain is: base_link -> top_plate_link -> sensor_arch_mount_link -> camera_link -> camera_rgb_frame -> camera_rgb_optical_frame**
    Net delay     avg = -0.0247312: max = 0.068892

Is there a configuration error? Why does the warning message show camera_rgb_optical_frame without the /? Did I miss something?

Here is my launch file:
