SICK S 3000 laser range-finder.

The sicks3000 driver controls the SICK S 3000 safety laser scanner interpreting its data output. The driver is very basic and assumes the S3000 has already been configured to continuously output its measured data on the RS422 data lines.

It is also assumed that the laser is outputing its full scan in a single scanning block.

Compile-time dependencies

- none

Provides

- laser

Requires

- opaque

Configuration requests

- PLAYER_LASER_REQ_GET_GEOM
- PLAYER_LASER_REQ_GET_CONFIG

Configuration file options

- pose (length tuple)
  - Default: [0.0 0.0 0.0]
  - Pose (x,y,theta) of the laser, relative to its parent object (e.g., the robot to which the laser is attached).
- size (length tuple)
  - Default: [0.15 0.15]
  - Footprint (x,y) of the laser.

Example

    driver
    (
      name "sicks3000"
      provides ["laser:0"]
      requires ["opaque:0"]
    )

    driver
    (
      name "serialstream"
      provides ["opaque:0]
      port "/dev/ttyS0"
    )
