[x] Create a file with free conversion functions for all Tango <-> ROS conversions. This will greatly reduce the number of code lines in this file.
[x] Add helper conversion functions ArrayToColor and ArrayToPoint. In the future, these could go to a file named 'msg_helpers'.
[x] Could be useful in the future to combine all thread-related objects in a class: condition_variable, boolean data_available, thread and mutex. This can avoid typos and will probably also reduce number of lines of code.
