1 - Docstrings for improving documentation was added. 2 - This PR doesn't add tests for the new systems that were created, however, the behavior was verified through the integration demo added at https://github.com/ToyotaResearchInstitute/delphyne_demos/pull/41. An issue will be created for adding tests later on as this PR has already several lines of code.
Let's squash the three commits into one.

Summary
Notes on the implementation
The final output of the entire system is a
ign::msgs::Scene
message that is later on loaded by theScene3D
plugin(ign-gui3 builtin plugin) atdelphyne_gui
.Sadly, once the scene is loaded, there is no way to edit the models, (the only thing you could do via a particular topic is to change the pose of the models). In our case, we wanted to change the color of the material of the traffic lights in order to simulate the different states in a semaphore. Other things that the Scene3d plugin allows is whether to remove the models or add new models.
So the workaround I ended up following was to delete the traffic light model when there is an update and add the model again. To do so
visualizer/deletion
andscene
topics are being used. These two topics are later passed to the Scene3D plugin, indelphyne_gui
when the visualizer is started.Demo
