 Tells the assembler to start listening to input data It is possible that a derived class needs to initialize and configure various things before actually beginning to process scans. Calling start create subcribes to the input stream, thus allowing the scanCallback and ConvertToCloud to be called. Start should be called only once.

template<class T>
virtual void laser_assembler::BaseAssembler< T >::ConvertToCloud ( const std::string &  fixed_frame_id,
const T scan_in,
sensor_msgs::PointCloud &  cloud_out 
) [pure virtual]

Converts the current scan into a cloud in the specified fixed frame.

Note: Once implemented, ConvertToCloud should NOT catch TF exceptions. These exceptions are caught by BaseAssembler, and will be counted for diagnostic information

Parameters:
fixed_frame_idThe name of the frame in which we want cloud_out to be in
scan_inThe scan that we want to convert
cloud_outThe result of transforming scan_in into a cloud in frame fixed_frame_id
template<class T>
virtual unsigned int laser_assembler::BaseAssembler< T >::GetPointsInScan ( const T scan) [pure virtual]

Returns the number of points in the current scan.

Parameters:
scanThe scan for for which we want to know the number of points
Returns:
the number of points in scan

Implemented in laser_assembler::LaserScanAssembler, laser_assembler::PointCloud2Assembler, and laser_assembler::PointCloudAssembler.

template<class T>
void laser_assembler::BaseAssembler< T >::msgCallback ( const boost::shared_ptr< const T > &  scan_ptr) [private, virtual]
