Xsense Driver for ROS2 #58

Open cassini-fly opened 3 years ago

cassini-fly commented 3 years ago

Hi,

I'm wondering if there are any plans to release ROS2 drivers as well.

Cheers,

Hello @ROS-lover,

We do indeed have plans to release a ROS2 driver, but development still needs to start for this. I will however register your request internally. Just to add to this, could you explain for what purpose/application you intend to use the ROS2 driver?

Hi there,

We are planning to use it for an indoor mobile robot that needs IMU for localization.

Best,

Hello, I'm intrested in ROS2 version too, any news?

Steven-GH commented 3 years ago

We are currently waiting for a third party ROS 2 version to be published, and I will update you once that is available. Unfortunately I cannot yet provide details regarding an in-house developed ROS 2 driver.

Hello I am interested in ROS2 version, some news?

Steven-GH commented 3 years ago

Hello @olmerg, unfortunately there are no updates yet that I can share.

Steven-GH commented 3 years ago

Dear @olmerg, @ShepelIlya, @cassini-fly,

A third-party ROS2 driver has been published today, which is largely based on the official ROS1 driver by Xsens. You can find the ROS2 driver here: https://github.com/bluespace-ai/bluespace_ai_xsens_ros_mti_driver

The third-party pkg(https://github.com/bluespace-ai/bluespace_ai_xsens_ros_mti_driver) seems to have some problems with recent modules. Will there be any official ros2 pkg released in the plan?

Steven-GH commented 2 years ago

Hi @vinci-xiao, Which recent modules are causing problems for you? Xsens is still aiming to release an official ROS2 package in the near future, but I cannot yet say when exactly that will happen.

I have a problem with MTi-3-0I-T. In this issue(https://github.com/bluespace-ai/bluespace_ai_xsens_ros_mti_driver/issues/10), the other guy is facing the same problem with MTi-G-710 and MTi-30. We only got the orientation data(x, y, z, w), but linear_acceleration and angular_velocities are still at 0.00 and not updated.

Hi @vinci-xiao,

Please see my response in the issue you linked to.

Dear all, I have an issue using the third-party ROS2 driver under Humble (see https://github.com/bluespace-ai/bluespace_ai_xsens_ros_mti_driver/issues/16). Does anyone have a tip how to solve this issue?

flabrosse commented 1 year ago

Adding my voice. We have to switch to ROS2 over the summer and looking at getting some MTi devices for our large all-terrain robots. Not having a ROS2 driver would force us to look at other brands.

Is there an update? Now that ROS Noetic EOL day is soon?
