Re: Dynamic Map

Map dynamicity is something that may change how you interpret things. It is
also a bit complex.
Making a stage driver to represent dynamic maps might be a bit easier, but
how are you going to get this info on real robot? Are you going to use
laser, sonar? or do you have a vicon-like system?

You may use simulation proxy to get data about dynamic obstacles on stage,
and write your own driver, it shouldn't be that hard.
