Revision history [back]

I seem to remember having this problem, and I ended up using depthimage_to_laserscan.

My launch file ended up looking like this:

  <include file="$(find yertle)/launch/openni.launch"/> 
  <!-- fake laser -->
  <node machine="robot" pkg="nodelet" type="nodelet" name="kinect_laser" args="load depthimage_to_laserscan/DepthImageToLaserScanNodelet camera_nodelet_manager">
    <param name="output_frame_id" value="/scanner"/>
    <remap from="image" to="/camera/depth/image_raw"/>
  </node>
