turtlebot_calibration perpetually waits for scan #69

Closed kbogert closed 10 years ago

kbogert commented 11 years ago

The turtlebot calibration script seems to go in an endless loop saying "waiting for scan", kinect laser is never activated.

I fixed it by replacing the 3dsensor.launch include in turtlebot_calibration/launch/calibrate.launch with the corresponding include located in turtlebot_navigation/launch/amcl_demo.launch

  <include file="$(find turtlebot_bringup)/launch/3dsensor.launch">
    <arg name="rgb_processing" value="false" />
    <arg name="depth_registration" value="false" />
    <arg name="depth_processing" value="false" />

    <!-- We must specify an absolute topic name because if not it will be prefixed by "$(arg camera)".
         Probably is a bug in the nodelet manager: https://github.com/ros/nodelet_core/issues/7 --> 
    <arg name="scan_topic" value="/scan" />
  </include>

Seems to be due to the scan topic name, but I'm not sure.

This was fixed with merge of #83
