Out of sequence data on the imu raw data publisher

stonier opened this issue · comments

Apparently causing problems for cartographer.

From Damon:

We dug into a bit before writing our flat_world_imu_node. It seems to us that a couple things can go wrong here:

  • It's possible for the same IMU reading to be published more than once (see line 158).
  • Jitter in the sensor timing may result in line 172 computing something that's older than the last published data.
