Hello everyone,
I would like to use a costmap and move_base package to navigate our robot.
To understand how it works and how to set it up, I started to
experiment with roomba_stage (in diamondback version of ros).

window, I get a problem, that a robot navigates inside this rolling
window, but can't
reach further than Unknown Space allows. I visualized everything in
rviz and it seems like
the rolling window doesn't move with the robot accordingly. Laser
scans are published,
costmap has obstacles but Unknown Space doesn't disappear. I have
checked settings
for local_costmap several times, tfs are correct, settings also looks
fine. Here it is:
