Does anybody have an idea about this? I guess, it is a need to write a node to publish the topic. Or anybody have had one written it. Thanks. -Shahmi- --- On Wed, 10/20/10, shahmi wrote: From: shahmi Subject: Re: [ros-users] Running RVIZ To: "User discussions" Date: Wednesday, October 20, 2010, 5:51 PM Hi, Thanks a lot Ugo and Ivan. I actually would like to run  "srl_people_tracker_0.2" and visualize the data obtained from a log file provided in the package. I've tried to run the following command and could not find any topic to subscribe to: rosrun srl_people_tracker_0.2 mht_run  -c parameters/settings/parameters.ini -f /opt/ros/cturtle/stacks/srl_people_tracker_0.2/srl-people-tracker-0.2/testfile/testing1.log My aim is to visualize it via RVIZ not via GNUPLOT as the package provided. The package itself is at: http://www.ros.org/browse/details.php?name=srl_people_tracker_0.2 Thanks in advance.

To visualize your data, you will need a node to communicate with the laser driver and publish the scans, and then rviz to visualize them. If your laser is a Hokuyo or a SICK, there is support for them in the laser_drivers stack: http://www.ros.org/wiki/laser_drivers Ivan On Wed, Oct 20, 2010 at 7:48 AM, Ugo Cupcic wrote: Do you have a node publishing the cloud point?
