I'm working with robots from clearpath robotics. I'm trying to use the pointcloud2 data. I plan to follow the steps: 1) Write subscriber node to obtain data from the /camera/depth/points node 2) Process data to be able to detect obstacles based on change in depth values 3) Integrate that with some movement code to able to move/stop robot in the presence of obstacles. Any help/guidance in this area will be much appreciated! Thanks!
