Does the microstrain_3dmgx2_imu driver work for the Microstrain 3DM-GX4-25?

Thanks!

Has anyone tested the urg_node to see if it works with Hokuyo's new UST-10LX? https://www.hokuyo-aut.co.jp/02sensor...

Thanks!

The local planner is in a very preliminary stage. It does not adhere to the nav_core::BaseLocalPlanner interface, does not use cmd_vel nor the ackermann steering message types, and will unfortunately not be universally helpful in other ways. I will let you know if something changes

Thanks ahendrix for the solution!

Thanks for the tutorials. They have been very helpful!

We created a custom local planner

That makes sense. I will validate this tomorrow. Thanks!

Sbpl_lattice_planner's default for navigation seems to be to move forward with minimal reverse movements. It seems to choose inefficient routes in order to move forward rather than in reverse. For example, sometimes it will turn around prior to running a forward route rather than taking a simpler reverse route.
1-Is this true?
2-Is there any functionality in sbpl_lattice_planner to make the default to be to prefer moving in reverse with minimal forward motion?
The robot has Ackermann-like steering and it needs to move predominately in the reverse direction. We could switch the forward direction to reverse however there are times where forward motion is needed.

The program hangs at: "Setting sync off". One possible difference is that my depth resolution seems to stay at vga@30fps. Using rqt and dynamic reconfigure, I change the depth resolution to sxga @ 15fps but when I exit out of rqt and enter it again the depth goes back to vga@30fps.

I also was not able get any poses using vga @ 30 fps. bit-pirate: When I used --res sxga and --fps 15 on the object_recognition_capture pkg 'capture' executable, the program locks up. I am using: -a Kinect -set the dynamic reconfiguration(through rqt) to sxga @15fps -using groovy/64bitUbuntu 12.04
