Use SDK to Develop Your Application

Different SDKs are provided by SLAMTEC to meet the development requirements on various platforms. Users can choose the one that best suits their preference.

Here is an explanation of how to use the ROS SDK as an example.

  • After compiling the ROS SDK, modify the roslaunch file using the following command. Change the "ip_address" parameter to the IP address of the IPC running SLAMKit. If the ROS SDK and SLAMKit are installed on the same IPC, change it to 127.0.0.1.

    sudo vi src/slamware_ros_sdk/launch/slamware_ros_sdk_server_node.launch

  • Use the following commands to launch ROS SDK.

    roslaunch slamware_ros_sdk slamware_ros_sdk_server_node.launch

  • Then, users can confirm that the ROS SDK has been started successfully as follows.

    rostopic echo /slamware_ros_sdk_server_node/scan
    rostopic echo /slamware_ros_sdk_server_node/odom
