Hector Slam and real position of the robot
Hello everybody,
I am currently using the Hector_slam package on ROS. To get feedback on my position I use the topic: slam_out_pose However, the position returned does not match with the real position of my robot.
Please, how can I obtain this position on the different axes ? Thank you
Are you sure that you are not comparing positions in two different frames?
Hello Thank you for your reply. By the way, I am newbie in ROS and I don't know everything yet. In fact, what I'm looking for, is to determine the position of the robot throughout its journey thanks to a Lidar. I thought I could do it by using the Hector_slam package and the topic: slam_out_pose. May be its wrong .. Could you give me some tips please? Thank you
How do you know that the position returned doesn't match the real position of your robot ?
Because I measured it. I measured the distance between the robot's current position and its initial position
