Hi. I'm having a problem with the simulated laser range finder in gazebo. The laser range data gets crappy around about 4 meters away, for objects at a reasonably acute angle to the sensor (45degrees). After that point, you get multiple adjacent laser ranges with exactly the same length, and the values "step" as you move along the line. See the attached image from playerv. It's almost as if the raygeoms are too "wide", except that that doesn't seem possible from looking at the ode docs or source code.
This is causing problems in my experiments because there is a bias towards short ranges in the region described which is warping my estimations of lines extracted from that data. Anyone have any ideas? Cameron. -- =================================================================== What would the world be like if everyone were enlightened?
