Which ROS 2 driver package to use and develop about sick_scan2 HOT 4 CLOSED

From my point of view, for use for ROS1 and ROS2 (and also for generic C++ use), I would use the
https://github.com/SICKAG/sick_scan_xd
repository for the TiM.
We will investigate the problem you reported and in all likelihood fix it on Monday, June 20 (i.e. tomorrow).

Can you write briefly which ROS2 release you have used?

Hi, as Michael already stated, for the TiM you should use the sick_scan repositories.
The sick_safetyscanners2 package targets a different group of sick laserscanners from the microScan3 family, each repository should contain the supported scanners in their according readme.

The ROS_INFO error is now fixed by the latest sick_scan_xd release 2.6.8 in https://github.com/SICKAG/sick_scan_xd.

Hi all,

Thank you very much for the informative responses. Really appreciate it. I will target sick_scan_xd as recommended.

I was building the driver with foxy installed from binaries. I can confirm that the build is successful now. I was having some runtime issues but I'll test a bit more and open a separate ticket if necessary.

Thanks again.
