Hi Kamil,
Ice interfaces can derive (inherit) from each other. The pair you are
asking about is an example of such relationship.
Take a look at the interface definition in
orca/src/interfaces/slice/orca/laserscanner2d.ice :
// slice
interface LaserScanner2d extends RangeScanner2d
('extends' is the Slice keyword for inheritance.)
The interface itself is the same but the data object
LaserScanner2dData adds intensities to the basic RangeScanner2dData
which only has ranges for a set of bearings.
LocalNav requires a RangeScanner2d interface, i.e. it can work with
any range-bearing device, whether it provides intensities or not.
On your 2nd question, there's no MCL library (or component) in Orca.
If you write one you may want to consider submitting it, it would
definitely be useful.
