Hello,

I´m using a sr4000 swissranger camera to get sensor data. The camera is connected by network with my workstation. The pointcloud of the sensor data I´m visualizing in rviz. To show the proper point of view I´m using the tf-package with the statictransformpublisher. The command line in my launch file looks somehow like this:

Everything works fine, except of a flickering, that shows up every few seconds. It seems like the tf isn´t working at this moment, because the pointcloud shows up at it´s primarily orientation without tf. I know that the last value of the argument (here 500) sets the period how often to transform. In my case 500ms corresponds to 50hz of the camera. I´ve played around with this value, but the best results I got with values around zero. Sadly there I got also the flickering, but less often than with value 500.

Has anybody an idea how to get rid of this flickering?

Many Greetings Michael W.
