Has anyone connected more than 3 sensors to ROS? If so, how can we manage it? Is it advisable to use a usb splitter?
I am trying to connect a stargazer sensor, a laser scanner and a kinect sensor to the ROS laptop. The laptop has 3 usb ports and one is taken by the turtlebot (the robot platform), one by the kinect sensor and one by the laser scanner. I wish to know whether it is good to use a usb splitter to connect the stargazer. Any other suggestions on doing the same is appreciated.
