Does this work with Kinetic? #31

Yes, it does. This repo has moved to https://github.com/ros-drivers/phidgets_drivers . Simply use the kinetic branch there. The package has also been released, so you can simply type sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-phidgets-drivers.

@muhrix This issue can be closed.

Hi mintar, I installed the phidgets drivers by sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-phidgets-drivers, but when I run rosrun phidgets_imu phidgets_imu_node, it says "Couldn't find executable named phidgets_imu_node below /opt/ros/kinetic/share/phidgets_imu". I am using ROS kinetic. Any ideas?

And when I run "roslaunch phidgets_imu imu.launch", I got

Failed to load nodelet [/ImuFilterNodelet] of type [imu_filter_madgwick/ImuFilterNodelet] even after refreshing the cache: According to the loaded plugin descriptions the class imu_filter_madgwick/ImuFilterNodelet with base class type nodelet::Nodelet does not exist. Declared types are phidgets_imu/PhidgetsImuNodelet

@ShanLuo Try to cd into the launch directory and then run roslaunch imu.launch Let me know what happens.

Hi hjjayakrishnan, thanks for your comments. The problem has been solved by installing imu_tools. http://wiki.ros.org/imu_tools?distro=kinetic

Hi @ShanLuo , great that you could solve your problem. BTW, this repo is deprecated! It has moved to https://github.com/ros-drivers/phidgets_drivers, and that repo has a kinetic branch.
