Velodyne vlp32 (Lidar)

https://github.com/ros-drivers/velodyne/tree/humble-devel
LiDAR setup, able to ping data to and from the sensor (could hear the thing inside the lidar turning)
Unable to visualize on RViz due to an error in the velodyne_pointcloud package

Connected the Velodyne Driver box to the Teltonika Router Reachable on 192.168.1.201

sudo apt install ros-humble-velodyne

The Velodyne LiDAR is VLP32C-B. Run the driver which will publish raw packets, /velodyne_packets. ros2 launch velodyne_driver velodyne_driver_node-VLP32C-launch.py

Run the transform-node which converts /velodyne_packets to /velodyne_points. ros2 launch velodyne_pointcloud velodyne_transform_node-VLP32C-launch.py

To visualise in RVIZ, make sure to set your fixed frame to /velodyne.

LiDAR currently does not turn on through the power management console since reflashing the ECU. Contacted Streetdrone about it.
