Revision history [back]

One example message type that exposes actuator currents (but also many, many other fields) is the pr2_mechanism_msgs::ActuatorStatistics.

std_msgs, as suggested in the original answer defines floats and float arrays, but does not contain message types with specific actuator current semantics. If you don't find a suitable existing alternative, you can create a simple message that wraps a Float64[].
