Has there been any decision made on what API levels will be supported in rosjava? The reason I ask is that I noticed the Android libraries and tutorials set minSdkVersion to 9.

It should work on Android Level 8. The Level 9 is due to the fact that the original implementation used a class that required level 9. This has since been fixed.

The OrientationPublisher in the Android library is using TYPE_ROTATION_VECTOR which is level 9.

We'll have to figure out some other ways to package those sensor examples as those are constantly evolving with the API levels -- you can use the actual communication parts w/o level 9.

I know this is an old question, but this is for future viewers who have the same question. I have used it on 2.3 without a problem, and I am currently using it on 4.2 with no issues. I was nervous whether or not it would work on 4.2 when I told my company to purchase a tablet for me. Luckily it did.
