Replace usage of `analogServer`

Open lrapetti opened this issue 9 months ago • 17 comments

Currently we are using the analogServer in order to stream the wrench data from IHumanWrench interface (see https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Arobotology%2Fhuman-dynamics-estimation%20analogServer&type=code). However, the analogServer corresponds to the analogWrapper mentioned in https://github.com/robotology/yarp/pull/2999, which will be soon be deprecated.

Indeed we should understand what are the alternatives. One option could be to implement our own message, and wrapper/remapper devices as we are doing for the IHumanState and IHumanDynamics, and removing the IAnalogSensor interface from the wrench provider (see here). Clearly this will also break the ROS pipeline, which anyway should be soon addressed (see also https://github.com/robotology/human-dynamics-estimation/issues/335).

Another option, would be to understand what is the alternative device.
