Port to ROS 2 Dashing #26

Closed clalancette closed 5 years ago

clalancette commented 5 years ago

This pull request does a port of imu_vn_100 to ROS 2. A couple of notes about this port:

  1. This PR is currently targeted at master, but that's only because I don't have anything else to target it at. I'd suggest making a new branch called dashing, and I can retarget the PR at that.
  2. I've removed the diagnostics code in this port. This is because ROS 2 doesn't currently have diagnostics; we can add this back later on.
  3. I've also removed the launch file, since ROS 2 launch is pretty different. I could do a port of the launch file to the python-based launch in ROS 2 if you prefer.

I've tested this code with a VN-100T Rugged, and things seem to be working well. Any comments or questions about this port are welcome!
