Hi All, Related a bit to the Astra thread... has anyone tried the Intel Realsense? It appears there is no OpenNI for Realsense, but is that important? Any disadvantages you foresee? Thank you, dougbot01

I did see this from Clearpath. https://www.youtube.com/embed/UQT9kakt60g It sounds like Astra may be the new default, but see complaints of it being "noisy"... is it better than Realsense?

Hi All, We do have a couple of pending PR's to add the Realsense R200 as an available camera in the default turtlebot stack: https://github.com/turtlebot/turtlebot/pull/222 and https://github.com/turtlebot/turtlebot_apps/pull/152 we hope to get landed soon. Until then there's a minorly forked version and documentation for using Realsense w/ Turtlebot at https://github.com/intel-ros/realsense/
