+## Declare ROS messages, services and actions ##
+################################################
+
+## To declare and build messages, services or actions from within this
+## package, follow these steps:
+## * Let MSG_DEP_SET be the set of packages whose message types you use in
+## your messages/services/actions (e.g. std_msgs, actionlib_msgs, ...).
+## * In the file package.xml:
+## * add a build_depend tag for "message_generation"
+## * add a build_depend and a exec_depend tag for each package in MSG_DEP_SET
+## * If MSG_DEP_SET isn't empty the following dependency has been pulled in
+## but can be declared for certainty nonetheless:
+## * add a exec_depend tag for "message_runtime"
+## * In this file (CMakeLists.txt):
+## * add "message_generation" and every package in MSG_DEP_SET to
+## find_package(catkin REQUIRED COMPONENTS ...)
+## * add "message_runtime" and every package in MSG_DEP_SET to
+## catkin_package(CATKIN_DEPENDS ...)
+## * uncomment the add_*_files sections below as needed
+## and list every .msg/.srv/.action file to be processed
+## * uncomment the generate_messages entry below
+## * add every package in MSG_DEP_SET to generate_messages(DEPENDENCIES ...)
+
+## Generate messages in the 'msg' folder
+add_message_files(
+ FILES
+ SystemHealth.msg
+)
+
+## Generate services in the 'srv' folder
+# add_service_files(

+# )
+
+## Generate actions in the 'action' folder
+# add_action_files(

+################################################
+## Declare ROS dynamic reconfigure parameters ##
+################################################
+
+## To declare and build dynamic reconfigure parameters within this
+## package, follow these steps:
+## * In the file package.xml:
+## * add a build_depend and a exec_depend tag for "dynamic_reconfigure"
+## * In this file (CMakeLists.txt):
+## * add "dynamic_reconfigure" to
+## find_package(catkin REQUIRED COMPONENTS ...)
+## * uncomment the "generate_dynamic_reconfigure_options" section below
+## and list every .cfg file to be processed
