About

ROS2 Sensor turns your iPhone or iPad into a fully-featured ROS2 sensor node. Using native DDS communication, it publishes real-time sensor data directly to your ROS2 network — no rosbridge or middleware required. Supported sensors: - IMU (accelerometer + gyroscope) — sensor_msgs/Imu - GPS location — sensor_msgs/NavSatFix - Camera — sensor_msgs/CompressedImage - Barometer — sensor_msgs/FluidPressure - LiDAR point clouds — sensor_msgs/PointCloud2 (Pro devices) - ARKit 6DOF pose tracking — geometry_msgs/PoseStamped Perfect for robotics researchers, hobbyists, and developers who want to leverage the high-quality sensors in their Apple devices for ROS2 projects. Use your phone as an IMU, a mobile camera, a GPS source, or even a LiDAR scanner for your robot. Requires a local network with ROS2 nodes to communicate with.
