Hi all, I have already read the IMU data from kobuki node successfully, but I dont know the data meaning. The data looks like the below

 $ rostopic echo /mobile_base/sensors/imu_data
header: 
  seq: 0
  stamp: 
    secs: 1355022789
    nsecs: 36483345
  frame_id: gyro_link
orientation: 
  x: 0.0
  y: 0.0
  z: 0.28769484546
  w: 0.957722128749
orientation_covariance: [1.7976931348623157e+308, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.7976931348623157e+308, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.005]

  x: 0.0
  y: 0.0
  z: 0.000349065850399

linear_acceleration: 
  x: 0.0
  y: 0.0
  z: 0.0
linear_acceleration_covariance: [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0]

So which direction is the x, y or z axis in the turtlebot kobuki?

What do you mean by which direction is the x, y or z axis in the turtlebot kobuki? Can you explain it more?

As I know the orientation's data is in the quaternion, and how about the angular_velocity, and linear_acceleration, and which direction of x,y,z axis it means which axis is horizontal or vetical direction
