1. Change permissions of the device chmod a+rw /dev/ttyUSB0 Probably is USB0, change it accordingly to your setup
2. In an Autoware sourced terminal execute: rosrun xsens_driver mtdevice.py -m 2 -f 100 (this configures the IMU to publish raw data from the sensor at 100Hz) To publish data execute (in a sourced terminal): rosrun xsens_driver mtnode.py _device:=/dev/ttyUSB0 _baudrate:=115200
3. Confirm data is actually coming using rostopic echo /imu_raw in a different terminal
