I am not able to figure out how the path(grid cells) returned by Dijkstra is used by the gradient descent algorithm. Any thoughts? I thought that gradient descent alone could be used to generate required path.

Generally the Laserscan messages of the /scan topic of a lidar are assigned to the 'laser' frame. Try typing in 'laser' in the 'fixed frame' tab in rviz and see if that lets you visualize the scans.

Does your subscriber on MachineB publish anything? If you are modifying the incoming laser data and then re-publishing it, you could then on rviz, view only the new 're-published' topic.

Hi,

I'll briefly explain what I am trying to accomplish and then Ill talk about the problem I a running into.

I have attempted to configure a custom costmap layer that is advertising a particular service SRV. When I try invoking this service from within my node it seems to be getting blocked. This is happening when I advertise a static_tf between the base link and map from my launch file. When I use costmap_2d without this transform in place, warnings are issued saying that the particular map -> base_link transformation is needed. This same SRV when invoked through rosservice call through command line responds as it should.

I am not able to figure out the connection between the static_tf and SRV if any.

I went through the tutorials for configuring layered costmaps but I didnt understand that completely.

Any help is much appreciated. (Also, this is my first time posting here, so any f/b w.r.t the structure of the question is welcomed)

This is my launch file:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<launch>

<!--  <node name="static_tf0" pkg="tf" type="static_transform_publisher" args="2 0 0 0 0 0 /map /base_link 100"/> -->


   <node name="map_server" pkg="map_server" type="map_server" args="$(find custom_costmap)/maps/map_levine4th.yaml"/> 

   <node pkg="custom_costmap" type="set_region_cost" name="set_region_cost" output="screen">

   <rosparam file="$(find custom_costmap)/params/minimal.yaml" command="load"/>
   </node> 
</launch>

This is my minimal.yaml:

 my_costmap:
 # must match incoming static_map
 global_frame: 'map'
 resolution: 0.05
 robot_base_frame: 'base_link'
 plugins: 

    - {name: static_map,       type: "costmap_2d::StaticLayer"}
    - {name: simple_layer,     type: "custom_costmap::SimpleLayer"}   

 static:
    map_topic: /map
#    subscribe_to_updates: false

 simple_layer:
     map_topic: /map
