Intensities are not published from ROS1 Publish Point Cloud node

In this example shown here (RTX Lidar Action Graph Overview — Isaac Sim Documentation) or standalone_examples/api/isaacsim.ros1.bridge/rtx_lidar.py , the RTX lidar is simulated and 2 topics are publised - laser_scan and point_cloud . I see intensities in the laser_scan but not in point_cloud . Is there a way to also publish the simulated intensities into ROS via a pointcloud?


In the action graph, I can see the ROS1 Publish Laser Scan Node has an input field Intensities Data but ROS1 Publish Point Cloud Node doesn’t.

Unfortunately the publish point cloud node doesn’t publish intensity data. Maybe you can refer to this post and try to write your own node to publish intensity data.
