laserscan_to_pointcloud package about pointcloud_to_laserscan

[paulbovbel]

Hi @reinzor, this kind of thing can be accomplished via http://wiki.ros.org/laser_filters#scan_to_cloud_filter_chain. The main downside is that laser_filters doesn't offer a nodelet implementation, meaning that it can't be used as part of a nodelet zero-copy pipeline for scans/pointcloud.

Generally a PR implementing a laserscan_to_pointcloud nodelet in this package would be welcome.

There's a library for this in laser_geometry http://wiki.ros.org/laser_geometry

Thanks, I am aware of the laser_geometry package. I am working on a nodelet implementation that can be added in this package.
