# This contains the position of a point in free space(with 32 bits of precision).
# It is recommeded to use Point wherever possible instead of Point32.  
# 
# This recommendation is to promote interoperability.

# This message is designed to take up less space when sending
# lots of points at once, as in the case of a PointCloud.

# This message is used by the PointCloud message to hold optional data
# associated with each point in the cloud. The length of the values
# array should be the same as the length of the points array in the
# PointCloud, and each value should be associated with the corresponding
# point.

# Channel names in existing practice include:
#   "u", "v" - row and column (respectively) in the left stereo image.
#              This is opposite to usual conventions but remains for
#              historical reasons. The newer PointCloud2 message has no
#              such problem.
#   "rgb" - For point clouds produced by color stereo cameras. uint8
#           (R,G,B) values packed into the least significant 24 bits,
#           in order.
#   "intensity" - laser or pixel intensity.
#   "distance"

# The channel name should give semantics of the channel (e.g.
# "intensity" instead of "value").

# The values array should be 1-1 with the elements of the associated
