Getting started with robot localization implementation from git.
Hi, I am new to ROS, i read quite alot of documentation on ROS, I want to use Robot_localzation ros implementation for imu and gps fusion through EKF/UKF. i have already created lunar catkin enviroment and successfully built the target ekf_localization_node. Now i am so stuck with how to go further from this point, how i can physically utilize this implementation for my imu and gps? What should i follow onwards on ubuntu terminal command to see the GUI or any handle through which i can see or utilise this implementation for fusing my sensors. I cant see any tutorials with command step by step for this, Any help would mean alot. Thanks!!
Hi, could you tell more information. which robot you use? is it using ros? or you are building your own robot? if that is the case, you first need to communicate and get data from sensors, so I would say start by checking ros drivers for your sensors.
I am only using BNO055 and GPS, now i have also sorted the drivers for my IMU sensor and i want to get started from this point onwards.. i have built the ekf node on ubuntu successfully but now i want to know how i can integrate my sensors and start controlling them through terminal command.
"i have already created lunar catkin enviroment and successfully built the target ekf_localization_node."
did you do any simulation to check that the node is working or you just build it? currently can you communicate to the real sensors? do you have their output on rostopic?
no i just build it and further i dont know how to do simulations, or if i run the master by roscore how to check these nodes from terminal or how to communicate my sensor with this node, afterwards i can get my output on rostopic, questions arent really clear to me if you could help me with that?
@Tom Moore Please have a look here. I know Robot_localization master node is to be used, i now need to know i have fuse imu and gps with having EKF/UKF, so what will be my publisher and subscriber? how to include IMU drivers into robot_localization files.
