Well, seems I did something stupid... I tried to retroactively change the author data (name/email) of my commits because I used the wrong account for the commits. It seems that that did not got as planned. I will create a fresh merge request and do it the proper way.
Currently the minimum value of each column in the depthimage was used to calculate the distance values.
When dealing with noisy data it is benefitial to use e.g. the 10% quantile instead of the minimum value. This way we still get accurate data but ignore noise/outliers.
The parameter
quantile_value
controls which quantile should be used.0.0
will have the effect of using the minimum value of each column (the current behavior and default value).0.5
will use the median of each column.quantile_value
of around0.1
. This way a lot of noise/outliers was removed, but the laserscan data still contained obstacles, even if they only covered a small part (>10%) of thescan_height
.
