ROSshow: Visualize ROS data with ASCII art

Have you ever SSH'ed into a robot to debug whether sensors are outputting what they should, e.g. rostopic echo /camera/image_raw and watch meaningless bytearrays flying across your console just to see if the camera was working? If so, rosshow is for you.

ROSshow displays various sensor messages in a useful fashion using Unicode Braille art in the terminal so you don't need to fire up port forwards, rviz, or any other shenanigans just to see if something is working. It currently only supports types from std_msgs and sensor_msgs but support for more types is coming.

For information and installation instructions please head on over to the Github repo.
