Hi there,

i am a beginner with ROS and I have a non-ROS application which calculates the position of a tag and i need to get this position data(x,y,z) into ROS environment, in order to use the ROS tools and libraries to develop further applications. This non-ROS positioning application(Server) provides the calculated data into some GUIs(Client) via TCP/IP Server-Client method by using sockets(localhost) to display the position of the tag. So my question is, how i could manage to create a communication between a non-ROS application with the ROS environment in order to manage the data transfer? If i would develop a ROS TCP/IP Client Node with the appropriate socket would it be possible to connect and communicate direct to the non-ROS positioning application Server and ask for the positioning data? I hope that i was clear enough. Thank you very much in advance.
