Basic Operation

filters::FilterBase API

The basic workings of this filter are done via the filters::FilterBase API implemented for sensor_msgs::LaserScan and sensor_msgs::PointCloud2 types. This means you can load this filter into a FilterChain along other filters as usual. Different from the standard filters, this one can also publish several interesting topics and subscribes to TF.
