Help to run diff_drive_controller
I’m trying to launch the diff_drive_controller but I get this message when I run the .launch file.
“Controller Spawner: Waiting for service controller_manager/load_controller”
" Controller Spawner couldn't find the expected controller_manager ROS interface."
This is my .launch file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/gwtwy3ogzq8... . I try with args="mobile_base_controller" instead of args="diff_drive_controller"
And the config file that I copied from the diff_drive_controller site.
mobile_base_controller: type : "diff_drive_controller/DiffDriveController" left_wheel : 'wheel_left_joint' right_wheel : 'wheel_right_joint' publish_rate: 50.0 # default: 50 pose_covariance_diagonal : [0.001, 0.001, 1000000.0, 1000000.0, 1000000.0, 1000.0] twist_covariance_diagonal: [0.001, 0.001, 1000000.0, 1000000.0, 1000000.0, 1000.0] # Wheel separation and diameter. These are both optional. # diff_drive_controller will attempt to read either one or both from the # URDF if not specified as a parameter wheel_separation : 1.0 wheel_radius : 0.3 # Wheel separation and radius multipliers wheel_separation_multiplier: 1.0 # default: 1.0 wheel_radius_multiplier : 1.0 # default: 1.0 # Velocity commands timeout [s], default 0.5 cmd_vel_timeout: 0.25 # Base frame_id base_frame_id: base_footprint #default: base_link # Velocity and acceleration limits # Whenever a min_* is unspecified, default to -max_* linear: x: has_velocity_limits : true max_velocity : 1.0 # m/s min_velocity : -0.5 # m/s has_acceleration_limits: true max_acceleration : 0.8 # m/s^2 min_acceleration : -0.4 # m/s^2 has_jerk_limits : true max_jerk : 5.0 # m/s^3 angular: z: has_velocity_limits : true max_velocity : 1.7 # rad/s has_acceleration_limits: true max_acceleration : 1.5 # rad/s^2 has_jerk_limits : true max_jerk : 2.5 # rad/s^3
Thanks for the help, I’m desperate with the ros_control package. Sorry for my english.
args="diff_drive_controller" is definitely wrong since you have it as "mobile_base_controller" in the config. The ns="/robot" also looks wrong, as I don't the config loaded into this namespace.
