What it does

  • Publishes native OSCP frame messages for raw, quaternion, Euler, rotation matrix and GNSS data.
  • Also publishes standard ROS sensor_msgs Imu, MagneticField and Temperature messages.
  • Is configured at runtime through a YAML file or launch arguments, including the serial device, baud rate and frame id.
  • Can enable or disable each output topic separately and has a frame watchdog timeout.
  • Uses SensorDataQoS by default, aimed at high-rate telemetry.
  • Targets the Humble, Jazzy and Lyrical ROS 2 distributions via separate branches.
