Discussion: Include (donated) type adaptations for pointcloud, images, occupancy grids #327

Description

@SteveMacenski

Description

A common use for type adaptations is going to be for very heavy, standard topics like pointcloud, images, occupancy grids. @roncapat has done the heavy lifting on this front in his repo https://github.com/roncapat/ros2_native_adapters/ to support PCL poinclouds OpenCV images, and occupancy grids for type adaptation.

I would like to discuss including this in the common_interfaces repository so that type adaptations are more easily and readily available and folks use the same common implementation.

It seems like it could go in each package (i.e. nav_msgs, sensor_msgs) or a new common_interfaces_type_adaptors to have the set of common adaptors.

Motivation

Have consistent, easy to access type adaptation support for the community to leverage.
