Run RTabmap Scan

ros2 launch phase_rtabmap_ros2 phase_rtabmap_launch.py 

Optional launch arguments when use different camera or exposure value

ros2 launch phase_rtabmap_ros2 phase_rtabmap_launch.py left_serial:=23638717 right_serial:=23638711 camera_name:=Basler acA2440-35uc device_type:=phobos interface_type:=usb exposure:=25000

Save video of the camera

ros2 run phase_rtabmap_ros2 phase_camera_record_launch.py left_serial:=23638717 right_serial:=23638711 camera_name:=Basler acA2440-35uc device_type:=phobos interface_type:=usb exposure:=25000

Update calibration yaml file

Calibration yaml files are needed to store in phase_rtabmap_ros2/cal folder before build Need to check or rename if yaml files are in the name of "left.yaml" and "right.yaml"
