freddy7phil commented 8 years ago

Initial Post by @neostarr : The following links provide enough information on setting up the sensor: ROS Wiki xv_11 LIDAR Neato Hardware Setup Neato Hardware Info Neato Robotics XV-11 Tear down and Repair: Part 1 Part 2 While testing it was found that the motor needs a separate regulated power supply.

To do: Set permissions to serial port: sudo usermod -a -G dialout $USER

Use the version 2 of Laser Driver: rosrun xv_11_laser_driver neato_laser_publisher _port:=/dev/ttyUSB0 _firmware_version:=2

At each new terminal, the catkin workspace must be sourced: source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash
