Subject: [ros-users] remapping tf frames
Hi,

I'm wondering if it is possible to remap tf frames from inside a launch file
(or other similar means) in the same way it is possible to remap topic names
of published topics? My use case is that I have two Kinects between which I
would like to define a transform. However, the base frame_id for the kinect
is defined in the openni_driver.cpp file. This means that when I run two
kinects they broadcast the same tf frame of /openni_rgb_optical_frame. Any
suggestions besides modifying the driver would be very much appreciated.
Thanks for your time.

Sincerely,
