ISAAC MSGS

This repo contains ROS message definitions used by ISAAC for communication over ROS.

Unless you are modifying the messages, you may not need to clone this repo directly and will probably consume this as a git submodule of another repo like the isaac repo.

Backward compatibility

Message definition files that have a version number (e.g., V1) at the end of their filename are "frozen" message types, as discussed in the telemetry backward compatibility guide. These messages are no longer published by the latest software, but we keep them for backward compatibility with archived ISS telemetry bags.

Examples include (definition: ISS activity relevance):

• isaac_msgs/action/InspectionV1.action: ISAAC1-2

• isaac_msgs/action/InspectionV2.action: ISAAC3

  • Note that the actionlib derived message types InspectionV1ActionFeedback and InspectionV2ActionFeedback happen to be identical, and we arbitrarily chose to rename InspectionActionFeedback to InspectionV2ActionFeedback for all activities ISAAC1-3.

• isaac_msgs/msg/InspectionStateV1.msg: ISAAC1-3
