Revision history [back]

You will have to do some minimal amount of processing on the Turtlebot to turn the Kinect's data into a pointcloud that can be serialized and transferred to your workstation, which is what those modules in openni launch are doing.

You might also find that pointclouds are very large, and you may want to run them through a voxel filter before sending them over your network.
