How do I write a android app like the android ROS teleop app? Do I have to use rosjava? Is there any open sourced project or not-outdated tutorials? What is the current state-of-art way to make a mobile app to a node.
@rozoalex the "most standard" way of running ROS on Android is using Rosjava and RosAndroid. Take a look here: http://wiki.ros.org/android (kinetic tab) and here: http://wiki.ros.org/rosjava . The documentation is a bit basic but it can get you going. In short, Rosjava will provide you the infrastructure you need to execute code as ROS nodes, send messages, etc. All of that can be triggered within an Android activity.
Depending on what you want to do, you may want to modify existing apps (like teleop), which are actually open source. Take a look at https://github.com/rosjava/android_apps , you don't need to start from scratch. Perhaps some of the existing components will help you out in your application.
Thanks! Is there some recommended resource for doing iOS node? I just found these : https://github.com/tomas789/iOSmsg and https://github.com/tomas789/iOSmsg_cl...
Sorry, I can't help you with that one. There is no "official" or "close to official" implementation of ROS that can run on iOs that I'm aware of. Those links seem to provide partial implementation to pass messages; perhaps that's enough for your application.
Currently, we developed an Android application based on the current architectural pattern Model View ViewModel. It is open source and can be found here:
https://github.com/ROS-Mobile/ROS-Mob...
or directly at the android app store
I also found this github repo and it nearly works out of the box for android sensor messages to ROS.
Two important mentions:
-add maven2 to gradle file otherwise it will not work
-build the app from the linux terminal because then Gradle helps a lot
