Where am I Project BUG - Map flickering #217

Closed chedanix closed 6 years ago

chedanix commented 6 years ago

I believe the root cause of map flickering comes from static_transform_publisher in amcl.launch.

Most people, myself included initially, simply tune out the map flickering by increasing the transform_tolerance parameter under amcl. This parameter post-dates a transform into the future, increasing its validity. Therefore, using it to "cover up" the transform from static_transform_publisher may not be wise.

static_transform_publisher serves no purpose and should be removed.

Yes, as I pointed in the Slack, this might be the cause. Will test this out soon before updating the classroom. Thanks for creating the ticket!
