Hi, I am looking to migrate the node as a ROS2 one due to better dependencies with openvr and python 3. I was looking into the TF transformations however they are not that clear to me. Could you explain me how you define map, odom, vive_world and vive_tracker? Thanks

Best, Matteo

Nice! Map is just the "root" frame that all others are children of. It's commonly used in ROS as a top-level frame. I needed a frame that I could put all the vive objects in so I called that "vive_world". Odom I can't remember what that was for, something to do with the movement of the vehicle I was controlling.
