    Is the data published topic that another subscriber can read? Or is the data locked and consumed by the obstacle avoidance while flying indoors?

      The PMD TOF Data is published from voxl-camera-server over MPA. MPA supports many clients per topic.

      You can see an example of how to access the data programmatically here: https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/services/voxl-vision-hub/-/blob/master/src/voa_manager.c?ref_type=heads#L380
