Package Description

ROS driver package for the thingmagic USB pro RFID reader. The driver creates a node named /rfid_detector_node and publish all detected tags on the topic /RFID_detections as custom RFID_Detection messages. The RFID_Detection messages have 4 fields: epc: A string containing the RFID tag identifier detected antenna: 8-bit integer containing the antenna number of the detection read_count: 8-bit integer containing the number of detections during the collection period rssi: 8-bit integer containing the RSSI value of the detection Uses the python wrapper for ThingMagic's Mercury API located here: https://github.com/gotthardp/python-mercuryapi
