Hi Ben,
You've just hit a package that needs some cleaning out. The only
implementation of the collision map that we are currently maintaining is
collision_map_self_occ, which can do self-filtering and also maintain
collision points that are currently occluded by part of the robot.
Unfortunately the wiki documentation on this node is not really up-to-date
and the launch files and tests in this directory aren't being maintained -
we launch everything out of pr2_arm_navigation and have the tests in
arm_navigation_tests. We also have major refactoring plans for the node in
the near future. In the meantime, however, pr2_arm_navigation has
up-to-date launch files for this node - that's the reason you may not have
encountered any problems in the tutorials. If you look in
pr2_arm_navigation/pr2_arm_navigation_perception/launch you'll see
collision_map_self_occ.launch. This loads a couple of yaml files for the
links to use in self-filtering and the sources of the collision map. Let me
know if you have any questions - we will be cleaning and documenting this
soon.
-Gil
