Hello there,

I have a robot model that I spawn in Gazebo, and I have developed a client, which indicates its position and velocities. Is there any way to indicate its acceleration, is there any service to call in order to declare it?

I wrote a publisher in c++ and I must include platform.h, but I cannot find it in any directory, and include the directory.Where is platform.h?

Hello.

I am new in ros. This is my urdf, I want to create a pool, and i tried to make a rectangular for a base and with joints to unite each other rectangular which will represent one of the four frames. In this urdf i wrote the base which is the first link and the left frame which is the second link, and i unite them with a joint. When i run this urdf, only the base (the first link) is showed in gazebo, what is the problem??? Is there any other way to create a pool without joints, only with one link?

I had created a 3D model in Blender and had managed to spawn it in Gazebo, but an error occurred and I had to format my computer. After the format with the same source code I am not able to spawn the model in Gazebo. My urdf is:

<robot name="pool">

<link name="base_link">

 <inertial>
   <mass value="100.0" />
   <origin xyz="0 0 0" />
  <inertia  ixx="1.0" ixy="0.0"  ixz="0.0"  iyy="1.0"  iyz="0.0"  izz="1.0" />

 </inertial>

 <visual>
   <origin xyz="0 0 0" rpy="0 0 0" />
   <geometry>
     <mesh filename="package://gazebo_worlds/Media/models/pinky.3ds" />
   </geometry>
 </visual>

 <collision>
   <origin xyz="0 0 0" rpy="0 0 0" />
   <geometry>
     <mesh filename="package://gazebo_worlds/Media/models/pinky.3ds" />
   </geometry>
 </collision>

</link> </robot>

What is wrong? When I rosrun, no errors occurre but no model appears in Gazebo either.

This is my xml file(name:pool.xml):

<robot name="simple_pool"> <link name="base_link"> <inertial> <mass value="100.0"/> <origin xyz="0 0 0"/> <inertia ixx="1.0" ixy="0.0" ixz="0.0" iyy="1.0" iyz="0.0" izz="1.0"/> </inertial> <visual> <origin xyz="0 0 0" rpy="0 0 0"/> <geometry> <mesh filename="package://pool_party/meshes/finalpool.dae"/> </geometry> </visual> <collision> <origin xyz="0 0 0" rpy="0 0 0 "/> <geometry> <mesh filename="package://pool_party/meshes/finalpool.dae"/> </geometry> </collision> </link> <gazebo reference="base_link"> <material>Gazebo/White</material> </gazebo> </robot>

I used the command line: rosrun gazebo spawn_model -file pwd/pool.xml -urdf -z 1 -model my_pool

I have the master node running(empty_world.launch), but after the command line nothing appears. How can I spawn the current xml file (if everything is ok with it) in an empty_world.launch??

I have created a client (named kouna_to_asistola_client.cpp located into the turtlebot2 pkg), that moves turtlebot in gazebo. it works with the rosrun command. i want to make it work with the roslaunch command. but when i try to include the node in the launch file i get the following error:

I have downloaded the turtlebot simulator and i run the command rxgraph to see the nodes. I want to find and modify two of them (robot_state_publisher, robot_pose_ekf). is it possible?? how??

I have created a launch file:

<launch>

  <!-- start gazebo with an simple world -->
  <param name="/use_sim_time" value="true" />

  <node name="gazebo" pkg="gazebo" type="gazebo" args="$(find gazebo_worlds)/worlds/pool.world" respawn="false" output="screen"/>

</launch>

My .world file contains the below about my mesh file:

<model:physical name="pool">
   <xyz>0.0 0.0 0.9</xyz>
   <rpy>0 0 0</rpy>
   <static>true</static>
   <body:trimesh name="pool">
   <geom:trimesh name ="pool_geom">
     <scale>0.0254 0.0254 0.0254</scale>

     <visual>
      <scale>0.0254 0.0254 0.0254</scale>
      <mesh>finalpool.dae</mesh>
     </visual>
   </geom:trimesh>
   </body:trimesh>
  </model:physical>

and I used the command line:

roslaunch gazebo_worlds pool_world.launch

but I get this error:

How can I fix this?

Where is ODE physics engine in gazebo, where is it used exactly?

I made a client, but when I rosrun it, I do not get any errors but I do not get either what I want.

I have created a server and client about set model state service of gazebo. This is the error I get when I run make:

This is the error I get everytime I roslaunch:

Hi,

I have created a package and when I put the command line rosmake, I get this result. Where can I find this broken dependency?

[rospack] woah! expanding the dependency tree made it blow up.
 There must be a circular dependency somewhere.

Hi,

I have created a package in my ros_workspace(directory),and I have tried to write a simple publisher into the "Codeblocks" software, in the package directory, but it seems that the software cannot compile the program at all because it cannot find the headers needed. Although, the headers exist, I found them and add the paths to the program, but there are lots of them, I can't everytime add 10 or more paths for a publisher only. Does the fact that I did not create beginner_tutorials package with turtle node and all that first, matters?is something in those files needed?
