Node based on ROS(hydro) reading MTi data. Tested on Ubuntu 12.04LTS with the 3rd production of xsens MTi.
Open a terminal:
$ sudo cd ~/catkin_ws/src
$ git clone https://github.com/JJJJJJJack/xsens_reader.git
$ cd ..
$ catkin_make
$ catkin_make install
Open a terminal:
$ sudo su
$ cd ~/catkin_ws
$ source devel/setup.bash
$ roscore
Open another terminal:
$ sudo su
$ cd ~/catkin_ws
$ source devel
$ rosrun xsens_reader xsens_reader -d /dev/ttyUSB0
Only for hydro I'm quite sorry that I'm still working on xsens_reader package compatible with other version of ROS.
Try USB1 USB2 if you can't connect to the port.
xsens_reader publishes the sensor_msgs::Imu message of "/xsens_data".
$ rostopic echo /xsens_data #to show the message of MTi.
/xsens_data(sensor_msgs/Imu) orientation, angular velocity, and linear acceleration.
