Revision history [back]

Hi,

I was doing something similar few years ago and we decided to create an rqt plugin specifically for our robot/need where we can display data and provide input buttons for user. This would enable you to use also more advanced visualizations like rviz.

If your robot/device is running ros, rqt plugins are very convenient solution.
