Hi everyone,
We pushed out new debian releases of the asctec_drivers, mav_tools, and
scan_tools stacks, The stacks support diamondback, electric, and unstable.
Here are some highlights of the changes:
scan_tools:
- canonical_scan_matcher has been renamed to laser_scan_matcher;
- laser_scan_matcher now supports multiple sources of predictive input
such as imu, odometry, and alpha-beta velocity tracking; can work with
laser scans or pcl pointclouds
- laser_ortho_projector behavior significantly changed to match new
laser_scan_matcher - check the wiki page for details
asctec_drivers:
- Imu messages published by asctec_proc now take data from the
IMUCalcData/acc_*_calib fields (instead of previous incorrect acc_*). The
values are measured in different frames of reference; if you are using the
/mab/Imu messages, you will need to account for this change.
We also improved the nodelet support in all packages and fixed various
bugs reported by the community.
Cheers,
Ivan
