ROS driver for NDI/Ascension trakSTAR/driveBAY2 devices

The package was tested in Ubuntu 16.04.

Getting started

Create a workspace in catkin

You can follow the instructions on how to create a workspace in catkin here http://wiki.ros.org/catkin/Tutorials/create_a_workspace

Clone the repo to your src directory in the catkin workspace

Build the project through catkin_make or catkin build

Copy USB permissions file

Copy the "99-libusb.rules" file into the path "/etc/udev/rules.d/" and reload the udev rules:

sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger

Start the system

Start ROS through terminal:

roscore

Set the source from the main catkin_ws:

source devel/setup.bash

Navigate to the launch directory of the project and start the demo:

roslaunch demo.launch

Or, start the system only and open with it with ImFusion (or any other preferred software).
