ROS Package for Continental Radar ARS 4-A

Hello, I am working on interfacing a Continental Radar ARS 4-A with ROS. Can anybody help to to find out a ROS package for visualizing the data coming from the radar on the Rviz window?. I have a media converter from technica (https://technica-engineering.de/en/produkt/100base-t1-mediaconverter_bcm/) to connect the radar to the Ethernet port of my computer. I am using Ubuntu 14.04 and ROS Indigo for my project. Thanks in advance for your help

There appears to be some work targetting ARS 408 in lf2653/myrepository, perhaps it could be used as a basis for the 4-A?

Note: I just googled a bit. Have not used this package myself at all.

Yes thanks.They are using ARS 408 RADAR which have CAN output. But the model that I am using ARS-4-A have Ethernet output.

ARS-4-A does have a CAN interface. I have not looked into how similar are both but Project-MANAS/ars_40X has an interface for ARS-404/8. It can be modified for your use case

hi! I started your GitHub, but I compiled ars_ 40x failed. Can IMU topic not subscribe?
