Revision history [back]

In your call to waitForTransform, don't use ros::Time::now() but your point's time stamp and don't hard-code the frame id but use your point's frame id. Don't forget to check for the return value to be true. If the 5 seconds timeout pass without the transform becoming valid, waitForTransform will return and the following call to transformPoint will throw an exception.
