Can't visualize point cloud in Rviz2 with Picoscan 100/150 #325
Comments
Thanks for your feedback. To visualize a point cloud, just start The sick_scan_xd driver publishes several point clouds that can be customized in the launchfile. The point cloud on topic Set "Global Options > Fixed frame" to the frame id of the point cloud, which is "world" by default and can be configured in the launchfile. See https://github.com/SICKAG/sick_scan_xd/blob/develop/doc/sick_scan_segment_xd.md#customized-pointclouds for details. |
Thank you for your quick answer, now it works! If you like, I can do a quick PR to add these info in the docs |
Hi all, I'm trying to test and integrate a PicoScan150 LiDAR into my application. To see if the driver is receiving data correctly, I'd like to visualize in Rviz the laser scan. After successfully building the driver repo on Linux with ROS2 Humble, I ran
ros2 launch sick_scan_xd sick_picoscan.launch.py hostname:=192.168.0.1 udp_receiver_ip:=192.168.0.8
. I can see the point cloud if I connect to the webserver at 192.168.0.1, and after launching the node I can see withros2 topic echo /scan_fullframe
the data being transmitted. However, I can't figure out how to visualize the scan in Rviz2. I tried changing "Global Options > Fixed frame" to "world", but what should I add then? A LaserScan, PointCloud or PointCloud2 display? On which topic? ThanksThe text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
