"Gmapping" using data from "Pointcloud to laserscan" gives error MessageFilter [target=odom ]: Dropped 100.00% of messages so far. Please turn the [ros.gmapping.message_filter] rosconsole logger to DEBUG for more information.
Hi, I am new to ROS, currently trying to convert the pointcloud2 topic from Airsim to laserscan using "pointcloud to laserscan" package and map it using "gmapping". I have successfully covert the pointcloud msg to laserscan but gmapping doesn't seems to work and give error msg as shown above. Please advise.
I'm using ROS melodic and running on Ubuntu 18.04.
Using rostopic list: /airsim_node/PhysXCar/car_cmd_body_frame /airsim_node/PhysXCar/collision_count /airsim_node/PhysXCar/imu/Imu /airsim_node/PhysXCar/lidar/VLP16_1 /airsim_node/origin_geo_point /airsim_node/parameter_descriptions /airsim_node/parameter_updates /camera/scan /clicked_point /initialpose /move_base_simple/goal /odom /profiler/data /profiler/index /rosout /rosout_agg /tf /tf_static
Cant post photo here, but i have check that the topic publish by pointcloud_to_laserscan is fine. The rqt_tf_tree shows that map -> odom and thats all. How do i point the odom towards base_link etc?
