How can I see the trail of my Robot?
Hi Ros Users:
I am trying to see the trail of my robot (P3DX) in Gazebo 2.2. I mean that my robot has a trajectory so I would like to see the trail of that trajectory.
Any ideas?
Thank you so much!

In the nav2d package examples there is a node which creates a map and shows the path of the robot as well in RViz Check out the nav2d tutorial 3. There is a node which does that. I do not think there is anything existent for showing the path directly in Gazebo yet. Neither I know why you should show it there, when you have RViz, but maybe you are creating a drawing robot ...
Maybe you need to write your own Gazebo plugin then:

I do not know if that can be done in Gazebo, but in RViz I have created a node which simply gets the position of the robot and appends to a path.
