ifm3d-ros 1.1

The ifm3d-ros node version 1.1 depends on ifm3d API 1.2.6, as can be seen in the compatibility matrix.

Between ifm3d API version 0.93 and 1.1 the internal handling of the amplitude and distance image and the point cloud has changed: The previously automatically applied masking based on the confidence image is no longer applied. As a result, more image pixels are displayed as valid pixels. If you want to apply a binary mapping to these images, use the confidence image as provided in the ROS node and apply the mask confidence&1 for backward compatibility.
