Controllable dji osmo gimbal - gauging interest in a ROS driver?

Projects

Hello. I’ve spent some time during this winter break reviving an old project and now here are OM2 and OM3 running scripted rotations from a python script over BLE: https://imgur.com/a/om3-from-python-ble-uzwAr4u. Phones act only as counterweights.

Is there any interest for these things in ROS? Maybe as some inexpensive temporary servos or something, don’t really know.

Looks nice! Any chance you are planning to release your current demo?

Yes, I’ve cleaned up the proof-of-concept code and put it here GitHub - alkersan/om-research: Documenting Osmo Mobile BLE protocol

I think you should link up with @youtalk and build a compelling demo with the Conduit iOS app.
