Hi all, I followed this tutorial for rosserial in arduino link text But here in this tutorial I need to add different ros topics for every new data types like string, int ,float etc. What if I want to publish multiple data types in a single ros topic ? What should I do ?
You can't publish multiple data types to a single topic. What you need to do is publish multiple topics from a single node.
Thanks Nicholas for replying, I am reading an arduino mega board by ros. I have string, integer and float data coming from arduino and I want to print all data in one terminal. But I can see only one type of data in one terminal by rostopic echo. How can I do this ? I am new to ROS.
You could make a custom message that holds a string, integer, and float. Populate that message type in your node and publish it.
Hi Nicholas I made header file for string and integer data type as you said. Now I am having another issue I posted here :link text
