[ros-users] New Release of RGBDSlam

[Felix Endres]

Dear ROS Users,

we are happy to announce a new release of our entry to the ROS-3D 
contest (see http://www.ros.org/wiki/openni/Contests/ROS%203D).

There have been many changes, we would like to share with the community:
- Improvments w.r.t accuracy and robustness of registration
- Performance improvments w.r.t computation time
- A more convenient user interface with internal 3D visualization
- Many convenience features, e.g., saving to pcd/ply file, node deletion etc

It is available for download at http://openslam.org/rgbdslam.html

Quick Installation (see README in svn repo for more detail) for Ubuntu:
$ sudo apt-get install ros-diamondback-desktop-full 
ros-diamondback-perception-pcl-addons ros-diamondback-openni-kinect meshlab
$ svn co

$ svn co https://svn.openslam.org/data/svn/rgbdslam/trunk rgbdslam
