2019-03-06 08:51:50 -0500 marked best answer rviz config file for android sensors

Hi,

I'm pretty new to all the ROS ecosystem so please excuse my question if not adequate (and I feel I miss many pieces for the moment...).

I'm wondering; is there a config file for ROS Sensors Driver ( http://wiki.ros.org/android_sensors_d... ) to use with $ rosrun rviz riv -d <config_file> in order to plot (on a 2D graph e.g.) sensors' data from an Android device (smartphone)? The "ROS Sensors Driver" was installed and is successfully connected to ROS master on the laptop running roscore.

I can also successfully print out variation from the IMU chips with $ rostopic echo /android/imu for instance:

header: 
  seq: 384095
  stamp: 
    secs: 1551421044
    nsecs: 381000000

In RViz, I got this warning:

No tf data.  Actual error: Fixed Frame [map] does not exist

And if I run this command in parallel: $ rosrun tf static_transform_publisher 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 map my_frame 10 I have this error:

For frame [/imu]: Frame [/imu] does not exist

I'm running ros melodic 1.14.3 on Ubuntu 18.04 64 bits.
And the "ROS Sensors Driver" app on the Android 6.0.1 smartphone is coming from the playstore.
Thanks.

Thanks gvdhoorn for the hint. Explanations here under.

I have tried two other things in the meantime:
1) the imu plugin for rviz: http://wiki.ros.org/rviz_imu_plugin : worked like a charm, I'm receiving the /android/imu messages from the $ rosbag play <my_bag_file> command I launched in the same time (I'm now searching how to visualize the device motion relative to the map frame instead of it's own frame, which is giving it a "static look" except for rotations which are fine.

2) rqt_bag: http://wiki.ros.org/rqt_bag : it seems also to work correctly to me but hasn't a graph visualization mode; rqt_bag screenshot

Then, I tried your python script to fix the bag file itself in two ways, none of them is working;
a) $ python rosbag_fixer/fix_bag_msg_def.py --use-local-defs -c "/android/imu" "bagfiles/2019-03-01-11-53-15.bag" "bagfiles/2019-03-01-11-53-15_FIX.bag"

which printed:

No topics found for callerid '/android/imu'. Make sure it is correct.

b) $ python rosbag_fixer/fix_bag_msg_def.py --use-local-defs "bagfiles/2019-03-01-11-53-15.bag" "bagfiles/2019-03-01-11-53-15_FIX.bag"

which printed: 

Writing out fixed bag ..
 bagfiles/2019-03-01-11-53-15_FIX.bag        100%            687.3 KB 00:00    

done

The new bag probably needs to be re-indexed. Use 'rosbag reindex bagfiles/2019-03-01-11-53-15_FIX.bag' for that.

So I ran the proposed reindex command to fix it ... (more)

That's great; it works with Python now! :D Many thanks for your commit gvdhoorn!
