0.3.2 (2015-03-31)

0.3.1 (2015-03-24)

0.3.0 (2015-03-14)

• use different list of filters for segbot v1 and segbot v2 due to differences between different laser models.
• added a launch file for ethernet hokuyo for segbot v2.
• added some code to process low battery messages. The robots will now attempt to send an email if they're reaching low battery levels.
• big rework of all the arduino code to support the sensors on the new mounting plate.
• added some diagnostic publications.
• removed hack in nan_to_inf filter that was setting values to max_range - epsilon.
• Contributors: Jack O'Quin, Jivko Sinapov, Maxwell Svetlik, Piyush Khandelwal

0.2.1 (2014-04-24)

• fix some problems catkin_lint discovered
• segbot_sensors: make roslaunch checks complete (#20)

0.2.0 (2014-04-17)

• Release to Hydro.
• segbot_sensors: add explicit build dependency on nodelet.
• segbot_sensors: restore missing build dependencies (fixes #25).
• Added udev rules for segbot, and updated the kinect laserscan configuration.
• Removed catkin_lint errors. Modify parser so a single Arduino message can provide any subset of the sensors.
• sensor_ranges_driver: get port and baud from ROS parameters If port is not a tty, open as a regular file containing test data.
• segbot_sensors: add explicit message dependency to CMakeLists.txt.
• segbot_sensors: add no-op ranges to cloud nodelet.
• sensor_ranges_driver: ignore non-ASCII characters sent from device.
• sensor_ranges_driver: improve shutdown and error handling.
• segbot_sensors: use roslint on Python scripts to do PEP8 checking.
• segbot_sensors: add sensor_ranges_driver for Arduino data.
• Updated descriptions and licensing information.

0.1.9 (2013-12-15)

0.1.8 (2013-12-04)

• add missing segbot_sensors dependency on depthimage_to_laserscan (#20).
• use roslaunch_add_files_check() to test that required launch file dependencies are declared.
• fixed a few minor errors found on the real robot
• added configuration with both the hokuyo and kinect in it
• preparing to add kinect as well as the hokuyo for navigation
• change nan to inf filter to handle max_range+ values as well. need to sort this all out in navigation
• update change history
• segbot_sensors: test any kinect launch files that do not us openni_launch (#20)
• add roslaunch_add_file_check() unit test (#20, ros-drivers/openni_launch#10)
• add missing segbot_sensors dependency on depthimage_to_laserscan (#20)
• fixed issue with hydro costmap not accepting +inf range values

0.1.7 (2013-09-03)

• increased footprint where laser points are ignored. closes #19

0.1.6 (2013-08-13)

• removed nodelet manager reuse for depthimage_to_laserscan for the time being
• fixed segbot_bringup to work with upcoming changes to freenect/openni launch files
• assume no reading from kinect means clear. closes #17
• fixed cmake function ordering
• removed nan_to_inf filter from hokuyo config. closes #11

0.1.5 (2013-07-16)

• cleaned up and alphabetized cmake and package description files
• nan_to_inf temporarily sets 0 values to inf as well. see #5

0.1.4 (2013-07-13)

• releasing 0.1.4 with properly formatted changelogs. see #10
• some cmake cleanup

0.1.3 (2013-07-10)

• uncommented openni_launch as it has now been released into hydro. closes #9

0.1.0 (2013-06-28)

• fixed typo in filename
• adding convenience vizualization launch file
• now using only 50 pixels for depthimage_to_laserscan
• added dependency on filters to use plugin export correctly
• freenect_launch has been released into hydro, uncommenting run_depend in package.xml
• finished catkinizing segbot_sensors #6
• catkinizing against hydro. progress towards #6
• added NanToInf to exported plugins list
• fixed filters to split off footprint exclusion from processing nan values
• converting nans from the sensor to positive infinite - feature used by new costmap_2d to assume no readings are empty
• using entire height of kinect to generate laserscan. This does mean we get some points from the ground. need to improve filters to handle this
• checking in configuration code not committed last time
• chaning laser range to front 150 degrees
• Revert "Test commit" This reverts commit 46c41cf9697ff40e67a750438d91d226fc34b3bd.
• Test commit
• Created launch file for USB cameras
• footprint filter now handles min and max ranges correctly
• added a new configuration for the Pharos IRISS group
• updated manifest for sensors package
• updated code to use depthimage_to_laserscan instead of pointcloud_to_laserscan
• added a launch file, changed filter name to get rid of deprecation warning, added reading of tf prefix
• bug fixes + now publishing the footprint polygon + appropriate configuration changes
• added an untested laser filter plugin for removing laser returns on the segbot polygon footprint
• fixed up h/w launch files, separating out common simulation elements
• reogranized all the sensor launch files
• a simple launch script to test naming and namespacing for the kinect
• fixed a bug in kinect.launch, also added device_id as a parameter
• some basic fixes to the hokuyo launch stuff - requires some testing on the actual hokuyo
• changed the custom version of openni.launch to use kinect_frames from freenect_launch. This allows having a top level namespace in the kinect frames as well
• fixed file permissions, also added a tf link from the base of the laser to the the laser itself
• fixed a number of tf_prefix related issues
• fixed parameter values for pointcloud_to_laserscan
• fixed up the kinect based segway launch file (missing the device id for now)
• added convenience launch script for the hokuyo
• renamed launch file argument appropriately
• directly accessing main freenect launch file (as I should have in the first place)
• some untested launch files for the kinect
• some launch file reorganization
• added a separate package to hold launch files for sensors, mostly while kinect issues are sorted out
