Udacity PCL Tutorial-Zeysthingz

Dependencies:

I will assume you are new to ROS.

mkdir -p udacity_ws/src
cd udacity_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/xmfcx/udacity-pcl-tut.git
cd ..
catkin_make

This should build the udacity-pcl-tut node in your workspace.

Then you can run roscore in a terminal. And in another terminal you can run:

cd udacity_ws
source devel/setup.bash
rosrun udacity-pcl-tut udacity-pcl-tut_exec

to run the executable.

To visualize it, in another terminal run rviz and as a configuration file choose udacity_ws/src/udacity-pcl-tut/rviz_stuff/udacity.rviz

To feed application with a point cloud stream, you can download a bag file from https://github.com/udacity/self-driving-car/tree/master/datasets

and do:

rosbag play filename.bag

to play it.
