Standard message for bumper
Hello community,
I'm working in a simple robot which has only limited information about surrounding. It should act as stupid vacuum robot do.
There is a bump Sensor which detects collision left or right. As I'm actually implement Hardware driver for this, I'm looking for a Standard or default message Type for bumper.
For some reason I couldn't find any. I found /kobuki/bumperevent and similar for roomba. But they seem to be specific to these robots.
Are there no common used or Standard message for these? I want to avoid to define a custom message, if possible.
Best regards Patrick

If you find a solution please post it here. My cursory search seems to indicate that bump sensors are usually part of the robot base (e.g. Kobuki, Create). I could see the case for having a stand alone message.
