Revision history [back]

The robot pose ekf does not currently have a reset command/service. So, the easiest way to reset it is indeed to restart the robot. The source code of the robot pose ekf is pretty straightforward though, so if you'd like to add this reset functionality, it would be a much appreciated contribution.
