Hi,
I would like to simulate a robot, in the stage, with two infra-red sensors, is it possible? I tried to put two Laser Range Finders with only one measurement, but it didn't result!
Someone can help me?
Thanks in advance
I have two Sharp GP2D12 IR sensor for my old roomba-create project. This is the setting for the sensor in the world file, they will use the same interface as laser. You can adjust the fov depending on your actual setup on the robot.
define GD2D12 ranger
(
sensor(
range [ 0.10 0.8 ]
fov 180.0
samples 2
)
size [ 0.02 0.04 0.02 ]
)
I am pretty sure stage views laser as continuous scan. I don't know what would happen with only 1 reading (apparently it doesn't work).
I can't remember but if you can use sonar in ROS stage (I thought you could), but if you can you could create a sonar with two readings at +/- 45 degrees (or whatever your sensors are at).
I only used sonar with the old player/stage system, I am not sure if ROS stage has sonar.
@BlackManta Nope !! I am sure that the stage wrapper doesn't wrap in sonars ! only lasers ! .... :-(
