2016-06-20 17:20:46 -0500 asked a question Turtlebot + Frontier Exploration: Turning in Place at the Start

I have curious issues using the frontier_exploration package on my Turtlebot and would appreciate anyone helping me understand better what is going on under the hood.

Firstly, this is a simulated run on Gazebo of my robot setup.

After I ask the robot to go forth and explore, it begins by turning in place. This invariably happens no matter what starting exploration point I pick. I also get the following error messages, which probably point at the problem:

@jacobperron: after you deployed your Android imu publisher, did you go on and calibrate the turtlebot like in this tutorial? Did it help in any way?

2016-05-31 17:31:08 -0500 commented question How to add extra gyro sensor for roomba[Solved]

@jacobperron, @sonictl: Thanks for your inputs! In the end, I went the Android way and got my phone to publish imu messages.

@jacobperron, when working on android_sensors_driver, did it publish to sensor_msgs/Imu, as described in the wiki page? I am asking because according to this, it only publishes to android/fix and I'm confused.

2016-05-26 22:44:10 -0500 commented question How to add extra gyro sensor for roomba[Solved]

Hi @sonictl, can you elaborate on whether or not using the USB-ported IMU was a success? When you published the data from USB-IMU to ROS, did you encounter any problems? Were you able to use that IMU data to improve the odom estimate in the end?

2016-05-20 15:04:19 -0500 asked a question Turtlebot - Google Tango 3D-Sensor

I am trying to setup an iRobot Create2 to perform autonomous navigation.

As much as possible, I would like to follow the TurtleBot setup since the tutorials look nicely worked out. However, I have a Google Tango that I want to use as the 3D-sensor.

It does not look like the Turtlebot hardware configuration allows for 3d sensors other than Kinect or Asus Xtion Pro Live. Is it non-trivial to include the Google Tango as a 3d sensor in the Turtlebot framework? What must I do to make this happen?
