-Dependencies
--------------------
-vrpn_catkin package from: https://github.com/ethz-asl/vrpn_catkin
+This is a ROS interface for VRPN ("Virtual-Reality Peripheral Network"). More info about VRPN can be found in their original [publication](https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/505008.505019) and on their [github](https://github.com/vrpn/vrpn).
 
+## Installation
+
+For both Ubuntu and macOS:
+
+1. build [vrpn_catkin](https://github.com/ethz-asl/vrpn_catkin) package (catkinized version of [VRPN](https://github.com/vrpn/vrpn))
+2. build this package
+
+## Usage
 
-Usage
------------------
 You have to start a ROS node per tracked object and the ROS node name has to be the name of the trackable object.
 
-     rosrun ros_vrpn_client ros_vrpn_client _object_name:=object_name _vrpn_server_ip:=192.168.1.1
+`rosrun ros_vrpn_client ros_vrpn_client _object_name:=object_name _vrpn_server_ip:=192.168.1.1`
 
 Or in a launch file:
+
 ```XML
 <arg name="object_name" default="some_object_name" />
 <node name="some_object_name_vrpn_client" type="ros_vrpn_client" pkg="ros_vrpn_client" output="screen">
- <param name="vrpn_server_ip" value="192.168.1.100" />
- <param name="object_name" value="$(arg object_name)" />
- <!-- or directly:
