Not sure if my problem is with rviz or with the neato
driver.
I can run my Kinnects (turtlebot bringup or
just the openni launch) and get images from the camera with the ros and
rviz, but it gives me warnings on the point cloud data -
saying no topic found
I can use the image command and get the depth data
though, and I get rgb camera data displayed in rviz - the main display
stays black. Once upon I time back in diamondback I did see data
here.
For the LDS.
I start the node by:
roslaunch neato_node bringup.launch
and the lds starts running.
I then start rviz by
rviz rviz -d ...neato_demo.vcg
No error messages, but the rviz display just stays
black. Data is being acquired. Since I am not seeing anything
in rviz (no grids, no axes, I am guessing my video driver is messed up
somehow, but I now I can display camera data. (Nvidea card in an amd-64 laptop
running Ubuntu oneric.)
Is there some other way to get laser data without
rviz? How?
Thanks.
