Simulating a Structured Light Sensor in Gazebo Hello, I am in the process of working on a system that will end up using

Hello all,

I have been struggling for the past few days to get a Gazebo simulation put together, and the hardest part has proven to be getting sensor data integrated in the simulation. I am trying to write a chunk of code that will represent a stereo camera, which seems to launch with no errors, but I'm not seeing any sensor related topics listed below. Can anyone help me sort out the issue?

Thanks in advance!
