[ros-users] Setting up tilt unit for the point cloud

[Radu Bogdan Rusu]

Sanja,

Can you have a look at the pr2_tilt_laser_interface package? We simplified the interface and made it an action, so it 
should be easier to assemble laser scans.

Cheers,
Radu.

By looking at the source code, I've figured out that it just accumulates the LaserScans and merges them in the PointCloud. What I don't see is how does it deal with the fact that laser is moving while tilting. Is this something I need to set with my tilting node? What is my tilting node supposed to publish in order for the TF to work properly when assembling?
