Revision history [back]

What I do on my project is have a backing message format (just a few strings and integers) to represent system state for things like power and temperature.

I then have a separate node that bridges these messages into the diagnostics message format, so that I can get a human readable log of robot diagnostics.

To make decisions based on battery capacity or state, I can use the backing message.
