setting up a tf for SICK Laser Scanner PLS101-312
Hi,
I am currently working with a 2d laser scanner (PLS101-312). There are no registered drivers available for this device in the ROS repositories. however, following this answer, I was able to find a fork on git here, which works pretty fine on the device I am working on. I could also see the stream of laser data using $ rostopic echo /scan
My question here is, How can I view the laser scan data on rviz? When tried the /scan topic on rviz, I get an error saying that the frame for laser_scanner cannot be /world, the example here shows that it is being set to a base_laser. how can I do the same? I am aware that, there should be a tf for my laser_scanner, what would be the simplest way of setting up a tf for the laser, just for testing the laser scanner output? please suggest, some Ideas.
Thanks again,
Murali
