Hello,

I'm currently using the Crazyflie ROS package of Wolfgang Hoenig and the VICON ROS package of clearpathrobotics (https://github.com/clearpathrobotics/vrpn_client_ros) on the Raspberry Pi 3.

First of all, I tried to run the hover_vicon.launch demo file but it requires a call to "vicon_bridge" package. However, I cannot install this package successfully because there is no libViconDataStreamSDK_CPP.so SDK file. The detailed error is like this issue: https://github.com/ethz-asl/vicon_bridge/issues/10.

Is there any solution to install this file into my current ROS package, or how to modify the launch file so that I can control the Crazyflie with another VICON ROS package (like the clearpathrobotics one).

Thank you,

VRPN is the only option for ARM-based devices. You can look at hover_vrpn.launch for an example on how to use it.
