Revision history [back]

At first, one who has this issue needs to change the log level of pointcloud_to_laserscan node to DEBUG. For example with rqt_logger_level tool.

After this, logs show the reason of rejected (inf) points.

In my case, min_height parameter was 0.0, so all points below this value were rejected. So setting the parameter to a negative value solved it.
