Gmapping with eddiebot package (Based on turtlebot API) [closed]
Hello Guys, I;m trying to use this package: http://www.ros.org/wiki/gmapping
with the eddie robot (parallax) using the eddiebot stack (Based on Turtlebot API) http://www.ros.org/wiki/eddiebot
I already have the bringup runing (kinect.launch and minimal.launch) but I would like to know how to get gmapping running
I dont know if it could be possible to use the gmapping code from the turtlebot and port it to work with eddie. http://www.ros.org/wiki/turtlebot_navigation/Tutorials/Build%20a%20map%20with%20SLAM
what should I do to port it?
if it could be possible to use the "turtlebot_navigation" package for this purposes.
what do I need to modify to make it work?
my idea is to modify only certain parameters for example in the launch file:
<launch> <include file="$(find eddie_bringup)/launch/3dsensor.launch"> <arg name="rgb_processing" value="false"/> <arg name="depth_registration" value="false"/> <arg name="depth_processing" value="false"/> </include>
<include file="$(find turtlebot_navigation)/launch/includes/_gmapping.launch"/>
<include file="$(find turtlebot_navigation)/launch/includes/_move_base.launch"/>
</launch>
to
<launch> <include file="$(find eddie_bringup)/launch/kinect.launch"> <arg name="rgb_processing" value="false"/> <arg name="depth_registration" value="false"/> <arg name="depth_processing" value="false"/> </include>
<include file="$(find eddie_navigation)/launch/includes/_gmapping.launch"/>
<include file="$(find eddie_navigation)/launch/includes/_move_base.launch"/>
</launch>
it could be as simple as that? since the eddiebot is using the turtlebot API's
thank you! Omar
Have you solved it? Which ros distribution are you using?
