Hi guys,

I am having issues using RTAB-Map on the client side(base station/my laptop).
I have a Kinect on my robot and the machine it is connected is set as the Master.I have no problem accessing the topics produced from the client side , when I view the topics individually on rviz on the client side everything works fine.

But when I launch rtabmapviz it lags to the point of failure.It starts to build the map but it is too slow and eventually fails.
I am guessing the issue is with getting the data from the robot to the base station over wifi.

I have tried using the remote mapping launch file example but there is no data when I ros echo the topics.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
