I use a laser to connect to the computer (with ROS installed), the laser transmits the data over UDP, and I already know the structure of the UDP packet. I do not know if there is such a packet in ROS that can parse UDP data. What is the name of this package? how to use?
http://wiki.ros.org/velodyne - it isn't clear that the S3 is supported, but I do see S3 mentioned in this issue https://github.com/ros-drivers/velody... .
Hi again.I also have some question to ask you. I can see the point cloud by DSR or veloview software. But, I don't know information about the visualized point data, such as distance, time and others. Do you know that there is a toolkit in ROS for crawling UDP packets and parsing?
You might be able to rebroadcast the acquired udp data back onto the network with wireshark (which is what captured it to begin with?) and use the ros velodyne driver linked above to turn it onto ros PointCloud2 messages which then other nodes could subscribe to to analyze.

Do you have a name of the laser (range finder/scanner?) and any links to the documentation for it?
The laser scanner name is Velodyne S3, you can see it at this site:http://www.velodynelidar.com/hdl-64e.html
