Hi Aaron -<div>Do you happen to know if your adapted driver would work with the PLS101? We have a few that it would be nice to get working in ROS.</div><div><br></div><div>-Dan<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Nov 3, 2010 at 2:56 PM, Aaron Martinez Romero <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:aaronmartinezromero@gmail.com">aaronmartinezromero@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Hi Aaron,<br>
<br>
The current ROS LMS driver uses the sicktoolbox. So my first questions<br>
to you would be:<br>
<br>
- Does sicktoolbox support the PLS200-214? If it does, then tweaking<br>
the sicktoolbox_wrapper driver should allow the PLS to work. (It might<br>
also be necessary to update the version of sicktoolbox that is pulled<br>
by the sicktoolbox package.)<br>
<br>
- Can sicktoolbox be modified to support the PLS200-214? From what you<br>
write, you were easily able to upgrade the player driver to work with<br>
the PLS. If that's the case, I imagine that sicktoolbox can be<br>
similarly enhanced.<br>
<br>
If neither of those options works, it should be relatively easy to get<br>
the Player driver working with ROS. You just have to call ros_init to<br>
create a ROS node, advertise a topic, copy the data into a message,<br>
and publish that message. I imagine you may also have to take out some<br>
player-specific code.<br>
<br>
I think that there may also be some player to ROS bridges out there<br>
that might allow you to use the player driver directly.<br>
<br>
