Description

The current codebase uses the PointCloud2Iterator class for handling point clouds. However, this translates into code that's brittle and unreadable. Point Cloud Message Wrapper provides a more robust and natural API for handling point clouds.

Purpose

Make the point cloud handling code more robust and readable

Possible approaches

Use point_coud_msg_wrapper to handle point clouds

Definition of done

The point cloud iterator classes from sensor_msgs are no longer used, in favor of point_cloud_msg_wrapper
