Hey Guys:

This isn't exactly using ROS, but if you are looking for the info on how to communicate to the roomba, it might help to look at this: http://www.robotappstore.com/Knowledge-Base/3-Serial-Port-Baud-Rate-Configuration/17.html

I've spent a little bit of time with the ROS software package, and if you are just trying to play around with it initially - it might be worth your time to try out the tutorial first - using ultra basic serial communications.

It goes over connecting to the unit, baud rates, and various other things which could easily be overlooked when using ROS.

Otherwise - ROS is a pretty cool development platform. How has your development been going?

Best, Ryan
