#### ROS 2 topic content

RadarSensor uses `RglLidarPublisher` for publishing two types of ROS 2 messages:

- [sensor_msgs/PointCloud2](https://docs.ros2.org/latest/api/sensor_msgs/msg/PointCloud2.html)
- [radar_msgs/RadarScan](http://docs.ros.org/en/noetic/api/radar_msgs/html/msg/RadarScan.html)

The content of these messages is presented in the table below.

| Message type | Data which the message has | Comment |
|:-------------|:--------------------------------|:--------|
| PointCloud2 | Position<br>Radial speed<br>Power<br>RCS<br>Noise<br>SNR | Calculated in Radar node from RGL |
| RadarScan | Range<br>Azimuth<br>Elevation<br>Radial speed<br>Amplitude | Calculated in Radar node from RGL |

## Example

On the screenshot below (scene `RadarSceneDevelopSample`) radar detections are shown as blue boxes.
