Create a sick lrms gazebo sensor #34

Open miguelriemoliveira opened 2 years ago

miguelriemoliveira commented 2 years ago

The idea is first to search for an existing gazebo sensor of the sick lrms, but if we can't find one we can develop following this tutorial.

This should be low priority.

There already exists this one, although the installation method is very convoluted. A new one might be easily created using that tutorial.

Hi @manuelgitgomes ,

that one we use as driver and the installation is indeed a bit complicated. But this is not what we need I think. These are the drivers to communicate with the real hardware ... we are looking for a simulator. Am I misunderstanding something?

miguelriemoliveira commented 2 years ago

In any case this is low priority ...

manuelgitgomes commented 2 years ago

I believe it is used as a gazebo model, but I might be wrong. Can you fact-check me @Sarxell?

Sarxell commented 2 years ago

Hi @manuelgitgomes , If I am understanding the issue...the sick_lmdrs_laser only represents visually the Lidar, so it doesn't simulates the four beams, which is that's what @miguelriemoliveira wants right? For what I'm seeing from the velodyne tutorial.

That's it. Sorry, did not explain well.
