Noise in kinect simulation of pointcloud
I am using Gazebo 2 with ROS Indigo to simulate XtionProLive cameras and test my perception code. I would like to add white noise on the depth to get more realistic pointClouds. I looked up the gazeborosdepthcamera and gazeborosopennikinect plugins but couldn't find how to add noise on the depth.
I managed to add noise on the rgb using
<camera>
<noise>
<type>gaussian</type>
<mean>0.0</mean>
<stddev>0.007</stddev>
</noise>
</camera>
Thank you for any help you may provide!
