A ROS client library for small, embedded devices, such as Arduino

Primary LanguageC++

rosserial and rosserial_86duino

This repo is ported from https://github.com/ros-drivers/rosserial. It makes rosserial support 86Duino, a Arduino-compatible board.

Changes for Indigo

Changes are being tracked on a per-package basis; please see the individual package folders, or use the "Changes" link on the right side of the package pages on the ROS wiki.

Changes for Hydro

0.5.5

  • Add support for Arduino Yum
  • Release rosserial_server

0.5.4

  • Fix a bug in string deserialization where part of length field could be uninitialized (issues 74 & 76)

0.5.3

  • Add rosserial_server - a C++ server implementation
  • Fix misc bugs including adding fixes for alignment issues on ARM processors 0.5.2
  • Wire protocol change to add checksum to message length
  • Support empty requests
  • Re-integrate rosserial_xbee

Changes for Groovy/Catkin

  • Moved to catkin build system
  • Moved rosserial_xbee to experimential stack
  • Created new rosserial metapackage, with depends only on python, client and msgs.
  • Closed, integrated and/or moved all tickets to github.
  • New message generation and workflow:
    • no longer uses roslib.rospack, or roslib.gentools (and is way, WAY faster)
    • messages are no longer built at built-time (yeah, sounds ridiculous, but is true, see below for new workflow)
    • beginnings of easier porting to new platforms (the lookup table is now found in architecture-dependent packages, etc)
