Is it possible to get an Arduino to do its tasks until ROS is connected? Once ROS is connected change its tasks. I am unable to find any way to detect ROS connection. I have seen similar questions where people are trying to figure out if ROS is connected. The common method seems to be using "ros/master" and "rosgraph", neither are usable in Arduino.

Is there a way to get Arduino to detect ROS without the above-mentioned methods? Thanks

Can I connect an Arudino to a laptop and run it? ( I have ROS running on my laptop. )

In that case, we believe that the rosserial package can be used to achieve this. After starting ROS, it sends a topic to Arudino indicating that it has connected to Arudino; Arudino subscribes to the topic and switches the flag in the callback.

If you switch tasks according to that flag, haven't you done what you wanted to do?
