ROS 3D Contest: 8 days to go

Friendly reminder: only 8 days left to enter the ROS 3D contest. Enter early, enter often!

We also have a special new prize: two PrimeSense Developer Kit 5.0 devices, courtesy of PrimeSense! These are much easier to use with robotics platforms as they don't have the additional power requirements of the Kinect. These will be special "judges prizes" given out to entries we find most appropriate for them.

There's a new openni_pointer sample in the ni package thanks to Kei Okada, for those of you who wish to track hand positions using tf.

There are aso some new entries to the contest:

Humanoid Robot Control and Interaction

Quadrotor Altitude Control and Obstacle Avoidance
