Any chance there is support for the NXT on hydro. Or a .URDF for MoveIt. I know there are people that have used NXT in MoveIt but there is little support that I can find. Does anyone have any examples?

I have stared making an attempt at https://github.com/chalko/ros-nxt/tree/catkinize However I am completly new to ROS. Any help would be appreciated. Or any pointers to others work.
I have made some progress on this set your .rosinstall to
- git: {local-name: nxt_python, uri: 'https://github.com/chalko/nxt-python.git'}
- git: {local-name: nxt, uri: 'https://github.com/chalko/ros-nxt.git'}
then
catkin_make
And you will at least be able to run
rosrun nxt_python nxt_test
which on my machine says
NXT brick name: Nick-NX
Host address: 00:16:53:13:8C:D3
Bluetooth signal strength: 0
Free user flash: 61688
Protocol version 1.124
Firmware version 1.31
Battery level 7422 mV

@nick-j-chalko: I've also catkinized the nxt-package (https://github.com/ToPitz/nxt_ros_catkin). Currently I'm testing and migrating the package to nxt_python 2.2 - Perhaps we could help each other...
@drews256: Have you tried the catkinized package under hydro?

@mdtobi, that is great. Yes I am using hydro.
So what have you got to work so far?

Hello, I'm sorry and maybe I'm totally stupid, but I have problem with this command:
Should I put the command to terminal exactly like above ? If I do that, I'm getting: -: command not found .
Or how to set .rosinstall ??
I have a hydro on Ubuntu 13.04. THX!

hello, i am working with nxt too but with electric version. I am thinking in change to nxt_ros_catkin that you are speaking. Do you try this version? (https://github.com/ToPitz/nxt_ros_catkin). IN what ubuntu version and ros version are you working?
thanks million!
I think that there's several people working on EV3 support.
