I'm trying to get intensity values being returned via the sensor_msgs/LaserScanmessage. I am using RViz to visualize this data and I found that the display RGB value is being computed off the intensities being returned from this link: http://wiki.ros.org/rviz/DisplayTypes...

I am trying to get the intensities returned in a specific part of the laser scan. I was wondering if there was a way to get that from the RViz visualization (where I already see the RGB points)

I was able to get the information I needed using the select tool from RVIZ. I was able to publish this information using the selected_points_publisherfound here: https://github.com/tu-rbo/turbo-ros-p...
