Hi,

I am new to Autoware and I have recently started working on the setting up the Autoware.

I have successfully installed the Autoware with ADE using the link here.

I am following the link to configure the LGSVL Simulator.

I have created a test simulation using vehicle Lexus2016RXHybrid (Autoware) and map SingleLaneRoad. As mentioned in the document I have copied the sensor data from here.

I am getting the transformation error when I try to run the below steps,

$ ade enter
ade$ source /opt/AutowareAuto/setup.bash
ade$ ros2 run lgsvl_interface lgsvl_interface_exe --ros-args --params-file /opt/AutowareAuto/share/lgsvl_interface/param/lgsvl.param.yaml

Error details:

[ERROR] [1618066657.298942991] [lgsvl_interface]: Transform from nav_base to base_link is unavailable. Waiting...
Warning: Invalid frame ID "base_link" passed to canTransform argument target_frame - frame does not exist at line 133 in /tmp/binarydeb/ros-foxy-tf2-0.13.9/src/buffer_core.cpp
[ERROR] [1618066658.298681311] [lgsvl_interface]: Transform from nav_base to base_link is unavailable. Waiting...

I would be great help if you could help me to find the fix for this.

Thank you, KK

You need to run the below command: ros2 run robot_state_publisher robot_state_publisher lexus_rx_450h.urdf Let me know if there are any other questions.

The transform from nav_base to base_link is the offset between the center of gravity (nav_base) and the center of the rear axle (base_link). This can either be published with a static_transform_publisher or by providing a URDF file to the robot_state_publisher. We provide a URDF file for the Lexus under src/urdf/lexus_rx_450h_description/urdf/. Or, if you are using ade, you can also find it under /opt/AutowareAuto/share/lexus_rx_450h_description/urdf/. See http://wiki.ros.org/robot_state_publi... for more information.
