Hello ROS users:
I am using the sicktoolbox_wrapper to interface with the SICKlms200 lidar. When I run the node, the terminal indicates that the data stream has started but seconds later the following warning message is displayed over and over again:
A scan was probably missed. The last scan was 0.10704 seconds ago. sicklms
In spite of this, I can still successfully see the readings of the lidar in rviz. The only trouble I have is that gmapping isn't working properly, I don't know if this warning from the sicklms node has something to do.
I have already verifed that slam_gmapping is making the transform between /odom and /map. And I have a configuration for the transforms /odom->base_link->laser
The message displayed by gmapping is the following:
ros Dropped 100.00% of messages so far. Please turn the [ros.gmapping.message_notifier] rosconsole logger to DEBUG for more information.
I would really appreciate some help.
Kind regards!
