Linux/AWR1642BOOST: AWR1642 ROS driver error

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST

Tool/software: Linux

Hello,

I am trying to use ti_mmwave_ros package.

When I build using " catkin_make" command, it stops at 76%.

I am using Ubuntu Mate (16.04.2- Xenial) os on "RPi 3". But the user guide specifies that it has to be a Linux pc or laptop.

So, is the error occurring because  I am using Rpi and not a pc/laptop or there was some mistake in the installation process? 

  • Hello Krishna,

    The Robot OS labs are only supported/tested with Ubuntu 16.04 on PC. Raspberry Pi is an ARM processor which uses a different set of ROS binaries and tools which have not been tested with the mmWave ROS labs and may cause them to not build or run correctly. You may want to search online or contact the ROS community for information on porting/using PC-based ROS packages on Raspberry Pi if you are interested in finding out more about that path. Please reply if you have any more questions or mark as answered if your question is resolved.

    Regards,
    John
