hokuyo at /dev/ttyACM0 change default settings
Hi everyone,
With our robot we are using a single hokuyo laser scanner for obstacle detection.
As software we are using ROS-Hydro and the Hokuyo node here. We got everything working, but startup is kinda cumbersome:
- Depending on order of bootup the hokuyo will be either
/dev/ttyACM0
or/dev/ttyACM1
, so we created a udev rule to always have it at/dev/sensors/hokuyo
. - Therefore we always need to set the port before starting up:
rosparam set hokuyo_node/port /dev/sensors/hokuyo
(taken from here )
Of course, this is scriptable, but I'm looking for a better way to change this in some configuration file or similar.
