 # idmind_imu
 
 ## Description
-ROS2 package providing drivers for IMU devices used on IDMind robots. Currently supports the **TinkerForge IMU Brick 2.0** (BNO-055 sensor), which provides orientation, angular velocity, linear acceleration, magnetic field, and temperature data.
 
-Tested on **Ubuntu 22.04** with **ROS2 Humble**.
+ROS 2 package providing the driver for IMU devices used on IDMind robots. It currently
+supports the **TinkerForge IMU Brick 2.0** (Bosch BNO-055 sensor), exposing orientation,
+angular velocity, linear acceleration, magnetic field, gravity, temperature and calibration
+state.
 
-### Prerequisites (TinkerForge IMU Brick)
-1. Install [BrickDaemon](https://www.tinkerforge.com/en/doc/Software/Brickd.html#brickd)
-2. Install [Python3 TinkerForge bindings](https://www.tinkerforge.com/en/doc/Software/API_Bindings_Python.html#api-bindings-python-install)
-3. Identify the device UID (use [BrickViewer](https://www.tinkerforge.com/en/doc/Software/Brickv.html#brickv) or `sudo lsusb -v -d 16d0:063d | grep iSerial`)
+Tested on **Ubuntu 22.04 / ROS 2 Humble**. Build type: `ament_python`.
 
----
+### Prerequisites
+
+1. Install [BrickDaemon](https://www.tinkerforge.com/en/doc/Software/Brickd.html#brickd) and
+   make sure it is running (default TCP endpoint `localhost:4223`).
+2. Install the Python dependencies that rosdep does not cover:
+   ```bash
+   pip install -r requirements.txt   # tinkerforge bindings
+   ```
+   The remaining dependencies are declared in `package.xml` and install with
+   `rosdep install --from-paths src -y`.
+3. Identify the device UID if needed (via
+   [BrickViewer](https://www.tinkerforge.com/en/doc/Software/Brickv.html#brickv) or
+   `sudo lsusb -v -d 16d0:063d | grep iSerial`). The node auto-discovers a single IMU Brick,
+   so this is only for multi-device setups.
 
-## Launch Files
+---
 
-- **idmind_imu_brick.launch.py**  
-  Starts the TinkerForge IMU Brick 2.0 driver node.
+## Usage
 
 ```bash
 ros2 launch idmind_imu idmind_imu_brick.launch.py
 ```
 
+### Launch arguments
+
+| Name | Default | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `robot_name` | `""` | Namespace for the node; topics become `/<robot_name>/idmind_imu/*` |
+| `simulation` | `False` | Reserved for a uniform bringup API; not consumed by the node yet |
+| `imu_cfg` | installed `config/idmind_imu.yaml` | Parameter file passed to the node |
+
+Parameter defaults live in `config/idmind_imu.yaml`. Treat that file as read-only defaults —
+override it with your own copy rather than editing it in place.
+
 ---
 
 ## Nodes
 
-### imu_brick_node
-Driver node for the TinkerForge IMU Brick 2.0 (BNO-055).
+Two console scripts are installed. **`imu_brick_node_v2` is the maintained node** and the one
+the launch file starts. `imu_brick_node` is a frozen legacy version, used by no launch file
+and kept only for reference.
+
+### imu_brick_node_v2
+
+Node name: `idmind_imu`. All topic and service names below are relative to the node, i.e.
+`/idmind_imu/<name>` (or `/<robot_name>/idmind_imu/<name>` when `robot_name` is set).
 
 Responsibilities:
-- Connects to the BrickDaemon and opens the IMU Brick device
-- Reads orientation (quaternion), angular velocity, linear acceleration, magnetic field, and temperature
-- Publishes sensor data as standard ROS messages
-- Handles reconnection on timeout
 
-#### Parameters
-| Name | Description | Default |
-|------|-------------|---------|
-| `control_freq` | Main loop frequency (Hz) | `20.0` |
-| `imu_freq` | IMU data stream frequency (Hz) | `20.0` |
-| `imu_frame` | TF frame name for IMU data | `"imu"` |
-| `imu_leds` | Enable the status LEDs on the IMU Brick | `False` |
-| `imu_fusion_mode` | BNO-055 fusion mode (see TinkerForge docs) | `2` |
-| `timeout` | Timeout before reporting a connection error (s) | `1.0` |
-
-#### Publishers
+- Connect to BrickDaemon (retrying in the background) and discover the IMU Brick 2.0.
+- Stream sensor data as standard ROS messages at `imu_freq`.
+- Apply parameter changes to the device and watchdog the data stream, reporting status on
+  `/diagnostics`.
+- Suspend/resume publishing on request (`~/standby`).
+
+#### Published topics
+
 | Topic | Type | Description |
-|-------|------|-------------|
-| `imu_brick_node/imu` | `sensor_msgs/msg/Imu` | Orientation, angular velocity, and linear acceleration |

+| `~/temperature` | `sensor_msgs/msg/Temperature` | IMU chip temperature (°C) |
+| `~/magnetic_field` | `sensor_msgs/msg/MagneticField` | Magnetometer reading (T) |

+> `/diagnostics`.
 
 #### Services
+
 | Name | Type | Description |
-|------|------|-------------|
-| `imu_brick_node/ready` | `std_srvs/srv/Trigger` | Returns whether the node is ready |
-| `imu_brick_node/standby` | `std_srvs/srv/SetBool` | `data: true` suspends publishing on the data topics; `data: false` resumes. Samples keep arriving from the device while suspended, so the connection watchdog stays quiet. |
+|---|---|---|
+| `~/ready` | `std_srvs/srv/Trigger` | Reports whether the node finished initialising |
+| `~/standby` | `std_srvs/srv/SetBool` | `data: true` suspends publishing on the data topics; `data: false` resumes. Samples keep arriving from the device while suspended, so the connection watchdog stays quiet. |
+
+#### Parameters
+
+| Name | Type | Default | Description |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `control_freq` | `double` | `20.0` | Main-loop / watchdog frequency (Hz) |
+| `imu_freq` | `double` | `20.0` | IMU data-stream frequency (Hz) |
+| `imu_frame` | `string` | `"imu"` | `frame_id` on published messages (`config/idmind_imu.yaml` sets `"imu2"`) |
+| `imu_leds` | `bool` | `false` | Enable the IMU Brick status LEDs |
+| `imu_fusion_mode` | `int` | `2` | BNO-055 sensor-fusion mode (see TinkerForge docs) |
+| `timeout` | `double` | `1.0` | Seconds without data before an `ERROR` diagnostic is raised |
+| `auto_reconnect` | `bool` | `false` | Enable the TinkerForge library's auto-reconnect |
+
+All parameters are dynamically reconfigurable (`ros2 param set /idmind_imu <name> <value>`).
