Using phidget or phidget driver pkg to see the feedback of encoder #6

Open chencol opened 8 years ago

Does anyone use phidgets pkg of phidgets driver pkg to see the feedback of encoder in ros? Now I have the phidgets encoder hardware ( http://www.phidgets.com/products.php?... ) and a DC motor with encoder.

I want to see the feedback of ros side when running some phidgets node ? which one do I need to choose? 1: http://wiki.ros.org/phidgets 2:http://wiki.ros.org/phidgets_drivers Hope can get some hints from you guys. Thanks!!

I just made modifications to the ros_arduino_bridge package so it excepts encoder counts from the kangaroo and sends velocity commands to the kangaroo. You have to modify the script running on the arduino and "base_controller.py".

Thanks, Tim Murphy
