Dear ROS (and Nao) users, I'm happy to announce the release of version 0.3 of the "nao" stack (http://www.ros.org/wiki/nao). Along with many bugfixes and improvements, it is now compatible to ROS cturtle and diamondback with NaoQI 1.6-1.10. The packages were restructured with all messages now in nao_msgs (more general and Nao-independent ones are in humanoid_nav_msgs) for cleaner dependencies. The new nao_tactile node allows access to Nao's bumpers and touch sensors (thanks to Stefan Osswald), and a new base_footprint frame enables a better compatibility with existing planning methods (thanks to Daniel Maier). For a complete changelog, see: http://www.ros.org/wiki/nao/ChangeList The source package release is available at: http://code.google.com/p/alufr-ros-pkg/downloads/list or via source checkout from Freiburg's ROS repository: http://alufr-ros-pkg.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/nao/ Best regards, Armin -- Armin Hornung Humanoid Robots Lab, Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg Contact: http://www.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/~hornunga
