hi everyone
I try to connect arduino to my ROS and i use rosserial_python package with serial_node.py node. Do i need another node which listen to my encoder readings (odom) and is running at same time?? Where could i find it?? Do we have a good package for it? thanks too much:)))
No, if you just want to run your code that publishes stuff from arduino, you do not need any other package...
If you want to test that the messages published by your arduino are correctly published you can use (in another shell on your host PC)
rostopic echo /your_topic
or
rostopic hz /your_topic
If you use only publish the encoder data, then yes. Else, if you directly publish the odom data from the arduino, you don't.
