2014-07-25 14:45:15 -0500 | answered a question | spawn urdf model in gazebo by C++ http://answers.ros.org/question/28557... Check out the above question and following answers. Or you could always just fork and give a command using system or one of the exec* functions. something like As to how to control the robot. Just publish to the topics the robot is listening to. I've been using ros hydro and indigo to simulate and control a Turtlebot 2.0. What I do is launch the gazebo simulator and turtlebot urdf model using and then run my own programs I created with roscpp that issues commands through the cmd_vel_mux topic and listens to the various sensors. |

2014-07-13 13:58:19 -0500 | answered a question | Ros Indigo cv_bridge OpenCv 2.4.8 source install Well, The answer to this question is to uninstall the apt-get installed ros indigo and to install from source. There might be an easier/better way but this worked for me. After installing from source I just needed to make sure my $ROS_PACKAGE_PATH pointed to the right directories. |
2014-07-12 21:49:40 -0500 | asked a question | Ros Indigo cv_bridge OpenCv 2.4.8 source install Hello everyone, I've recently installed Ros Indigo on Ubuntu 14.04. I was having issues with OpenCv installed by sudo apt-get install libopencv-dev as it did not contain the nonfree/* (SIFT SURF and other 2d features) modules. I decided to uninstall libopencv-dev and install OpenCv 2.4.8 from source. This went just fine; however, several ros packages (cv_bridge being one of them) were uninstalled as they depended on libopencv-dev. This is the list of all of the ros packages that depend on libopencv-dev Is there a method to install these packages and force them to depend on my source installed opencv? |
2014-07-10 19:31:00 -0500 | answered a question | ROS Indigo Turtlebot Gazebo Simulation I've figured out how to get this to work as a sort of semi-fix until the official debians are finalized and released. As fergs mentioned the problem is indeed with incompatabilities with ROS Indigo Gazebo and URDF. The temporary fix is to install Gazebo from source. This then lets gazebo use the urdf library that comes packaged with trusty. Here are the steps I took from a fresh Ubuntu 14.04 install: Install gazebo 2.2 from source. (I did the optional stage/player libraries as well) Install ros-indigo-desktop-full using apt-get Install ros turtlebot packages from source (only available option currently). Use instructions found at: http://gazebosim.org/wiki/2.2/install http://wiki.ros.org/indigo/Installati... http://wiki.ros.org/turtlebot/Tutoria... |

2014-06-21 19:55:28 -0500 | asked a question | ROS Indigo Turtlebot Gazebo Simulation On Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty I recently installed Ros Indigo using apt-get and the turtlebot packages from source following the instructions on turtlebot/indigo/instillation tutorial (but using the turtlebot does not show in the gazebo window nor does the majority of the expected topics get posted (ie any of the /camera/* topics or /odom topic). I'm using Gazebo 2.2.2, Ubuntu 14.04 and ROS Indigo I've sourced my the indigo setup.bash as well as the ones for the rocon, kobuki, and turtlebot modules from the instilation tutorial above. After starting the program the gazebo window will open and you can pan/zoom but none of the models will show on the screen, including any that I add after the program starts. Below is the output of running roslaunch turtlebot_gazebo turtlebot_empty_world.launch (more) |
