Hi,<br>
<br>
other sensor msgs types, that are relevant for smartphones (IMU for
instance) include the the covariance matrices to represent the
measurement uncertainty. Why should the new messages do not provide
such an information? <br>
<br>
Best wishes<br>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm proposing a few new messages for sensor_msgs. These
messages are intended to provide common, shareable data types
for new low cost and mobile sensing applications.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Some examples of these sensors are low cost breakout boards
by Sparkfun.com or the available sensors in a modern Android or
Apple smartphone/tablet.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The proposed messages are:</div>
<div>sensor_msgs/Temperature</div>
<div>sensor_msgs/Illuminance</div>
<div>sensor_msgs/MagneticField</div>
<div>sensor_msgs/Pressure</div>
<div>sensor_msgs/RelativeHumidity</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please leave questions, concerns, and comments on the review
page:</div>
