Feature description
In ArduPilot, we namespace all our topics, including TF, so they can be remapped at launch time. We want to run the view_frames tool on the frames published by ArduPilot, but we can't unless we remap them. In a large system, it's nice to be able to run diagnostics without changing the behavior of the system.
Implementation considerations
Add the following options
tf_static_topicwhich defaults to the existtf_statictf_topicwhich defaults to the existingtf
Example usage:
ros2 run tf2_tools view_frames --tf_static_topic=/ap/tf_static --tf_topic=/ap/tf
