What it does
- Provides parameter handling with dynamic reconfigure support and a simple RAII profiler.
- Offers fmt-style logging macros and message formatters for geometry, Eigen, TF2 and sensor types.
- Includes a time-indexed pose buffer with interpolation, covariance rotation and SE(3) conversion.
- Supplies composable nodes such as ReframeOdom and TfReroot for transforms.
- Converts IMU and odometry data into twists, broadcasts odometry transforms, and muxes velocity sensors.
- Includes point cloud iterators, transforms, motion deskew, and crop and merge composable nodes.
