Hello,

I'm trying to use the fovis_ros library with a kinect to publish the geometry_msgs/PoseWithCovariance message to a robot which uses the x-forward, y-left and z-up convention. For this I need the original mono_depth_odometer/odometry message to be published in a different axis from the original (which is x-right, y-down and z-front).

I have seen this question: http://answers.ros.org/question/55501/rviz-camera-view-other-coordinate-frame-convention/ But the following warnings appear when trying to run the "_base_link_frame_id:=/camera_rgb_optical_frame" parameter:

Unable to lookup transform, cache is empty, when looking up transform from frame [/camera_depth_optical_frame] to frame [/camera_rgb_optical_frame]

And the axis don't seem to change.

I basically need to rotate the original angles in which the message is published.

Do you have any suggestions of how could this be done?
