Hi Chad Rockey, Thanks for your reply. You are right, it is very fun to play with Razor. The fast 3D simulation in this razor_imu_9dof make it look like a rocket! This package also publish IMU message which make it good for this package www.ros.org/wiki/robot_pose_ekf Glad you enjoy this release, feel free to comment and make this package awesome. PS: I will make a Youtube video to prove that this package works like magic :) ROS Wiki http://www.ros.org/wiki/razor_imu_9dof GitHub https://github.com/robotictang/razor_imu_9dof Cheers Tang On 4 January 2013 04:00, wrote: > Send ros-users mailing list submissions to > ros-users@code.ros.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://code.ros.org/mailman/listinfo/ros-users > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > ros-users-request@code.ros.org > > You can reach the person managing the list at > ros-users-owner@code.ros.org > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of ros-users digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
