Hi all, I'm a beginner to ROS. I currently have a raspberry Pi 4 4GB RAM running ROS kinetic on my wild thumper robot with a lidar attached. I was wondering about the best way to use google cartographer to do SLAM. Is it possible to perform SLAM with Cartographer running straight on the Pi despite the Pi not meeting Google Cartographer's system requirements? Or because, as I have both the Pi and a computer connected to the same wifi network, I can have the computer to perform the Cartographer's calculations and subscribe to the sensor data from the Raspberry Pi on robot, to produce a map.

Thanks for your help,

Hey!! Did you get any solution regarding this. I'm also doing something similar, I'm able to get lidar scan data into my computer but not able to connect cartographer with it. Mainly because cartographer need lidar node but I'm launching lidar node on raspberry pi not on the system.
