Google Cartographer TF
I'm reading the documentation and I'm unsure how to make the TF. Am I understanding this right? "Note that Cartographer’s ROS integration uses tf2, thus all frame IDs are expected to contain only a frame name (lower-case with underscores) and no prefix or slashes. See REP 105 for commonly used coordinate frames." That I have to implement tf2 or is the cartographer built with tf2?

I have a 3d RGB camera and I did it like this: http://wiki.ros.org/navigation/Tutorials/RobotSetup/TF

Cartographer uses TF2. The idea is that now the frame name should follow the new naming convention.
i.e frame_id = "odom" (this is tf2 standard)
instead of
frame_id = "/odom" (this is tf)

Is this just a general question or are you running into some problems/errors?
