2015-10-14 06:43:58 -0500 | marked best answer | What should I expect from Turtlebot calibration? / How do I know if my Turtlebot is broken? I'm having a hard time debugging my Turtlebot because I don't know what a functioning Turtlebot should look like. Now that I've read the source code for
Here's a video showing my bot doing calibration (I know it over-turns right now so the numbers aren't correct, I just want to show you how it stops for long periods of time making weird noises, e.g. t=0:50): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8X8Sm... I appreciate any clues you can give, even if you can't answer all of the questions above. We can collaboratively put together an answer here. Edit: Seriously? No one is going to even give me a hint of whether they think my video looks normal or not?? |

2015-05-09 22:02:23 -0500 | commented answer | Overlaying a package with "cmake" build type Yeah, doing that with any random catkin package will correctly overlay that package, but only that package is added to the package path and ompl is still missing: |

I want to overlay the ompl package, which is a cmake-only build: At this point, I would expect This is very different from the normal setup file! Even when I put a normal setup file in there, it still doesn't work, because it's not a catkin build (it doesn't have a Is this normal?? What's the correct way to overlay a cmake-only package? |

2015-04-15 12:44:52 -0500 | commented answer | How to link to a custom version of OMPL instead of the ROS-supplied version? Well, what I meant was, if I decide to also use MoveIt in my program then could there be conflicts? Or maybe not, because I'd be using the MoveIt from /opt/ros/hydro which is already linked to /opt/ros/hydro/ompl and that would not change? |
2015-04-14 21:14:12 -0500 | asked a question | How to link to a custom version of OMPL instead of the ROS-supplied version? ROS Hydro comes with OMPL 0.13.0. I want to use OMPL 1.0.0. For this project, I'm using OMPL on its own; I'm not trying to change the one used by MoveIt, only the one used by my program. How do I set it up such that the line: in my As suggested by But that didn't seem to work at all. I even output a message to ensure the variable was set: Notice the line Edit: Hmm, should I instead be looking into how to build the ompl ROS package and use workspace overlaying?? But then that would change the version of OMPL for the whole system, rather than just my program... right? |

2015-03-14 15:45:30 -0500 | commented answer | Matlab libraries causing conflicts / linking errors You're right that the new ROS support is extensive, and while my preference is for C++, it is probably possible to port the entire thing to Matlab. I don't have R2015a though, and ROS support is a bit more limited in previous versions. But it's still an option to consider. |
2015-03-14 15:42:13 -0500 | commented answer | Matlab libraries causing conflicts / linking errors Thanks for your help. I decided the best thing for my situation would be to completely separate the Matlab nodes from the C++ nodes so that I don't need to use the Matlab C/C++ APIs. It limits the ways I can structure the program, but of course it's less limiting than a program that doesn't compile. |

2015-02-23 21:35:45 -0500 | answered a question | What should I expect from Turtlebot calibration? / How do I know if my Turtlebot is broken? Quoting REP 119 — Specification for TurtleBot Compatible Platforms:
So dead reckoning should be very good indeed. This doesn't answer all the questions posed, but it does give a target to shoot for. I never tried manually calibrating the gyro so I can't be sure that my Turtlebot actually had a hardware issue, but I do imagine it should have been much better than that, even with a suboptimal calibration. |

2015-02-22 01:54:51 -0500 | commented question | From c++ code to python code for a ROS program Indent your code so that it is all treated as a single code block. What exactly are you hoping for as an answer? Do you know how to write a Python class? Change this C++ class into a Python class and then change all the C++ syntax into Python syntax. They should be almost the same. |
