summit hokuyo data

edit

Hello Robotnik,

I have some question about sensor hokuyo and the data received.

I have some troubles to use the stack summit_sim in FUERTE.

I rosmaked summit_description, summit_controller inside this stack and launch the description robot:

$ roslaunch summit_description summit.launch

It looks great but in the verbose of gazebo server I have this warning:

Ok this is very weird because I can launch other worlds without troubles. I don't know why but I can't see the fan laser rays in the world. I can get the information of the hokuyo sensor (very bad data because it isn't logic data --> I receive only values between 0.25 and 0.05, it looks like the sensor are inside the chassis of the robot.).

If help, I put the code here:
