Footsteps in Rviz

These footsteps are created similarly to this tutorial:

Changes made include using:

marker.type = visualization_msgs::Marker::MESH_MARKER;

marker.mesh_resource = "package://using_markers/src/meshes/foot.dae"; // This is the location where I stored the foot mesh

instead of:

marker.type = visualization_msgs::Marker::SPHERE;

And also making necessary changes to publish multiple meshes.

The footsteps can be published by calling:

rosrun using_markers footsteps

note:

roscore must be running

usually only two footsteps load first. Then after about a minute the others show up. Debugging is on going to solve this.
