2016-03-17 13:55:03 -0500 | marked best answer | Bullet library roadmap The ROS bullet wiki states the following:
As far as I can tell, this has been there for a long while. Is there any development with this issue? I wrote a package in ROS which uses tf::Transform math. I am trying to separate it into a standalone library which can be used outside of ROS. I am not certain what math library to use. I assume there might be problems if I link it to non-ROS bullet, if the library is then used with a ROS wrapper which uses the patched ROS bullet. |

2014-04-20 12:53:22 -0500 | marked best answer | Accuracy / resolution of ROS time I was doing some quick profiling of the execution time of a piece of code, and noticed that I was getting different answers depending on what method I use to get the current time. EDIT: original test removed, added test as per Eric's suggestion. I am running on: Ubuntu, 3.0.0-17-generic The following code is inserted in a callback function, which is called asynchronously. Output: Consclusion
I noticed that if I insert the example above in a loop at startup (instead of asynchronously inside a function), and tell it to sleep a certain time each iteration, I get 0.0 ms reported duration by ROS, and the correct duration with the other 2 methods. My only explanation is that ros::spinOnce() hasn't been called, and this is interfering with ros::Time::now(). This has very little impact on my profiling. However, I sometimes use the ros time to calculate velocities or other quantities in the form Could anyone comment on this? Am I doing something wrong? EDIT 2 I was running using ... (more) |

I am assuming there's a memcpy involved, which (when dealing with kinect data) is probably not negligible. Second: is there a way to avoid this, by directly subscribing/publishing Thanks, Ivan |
2014-04-20 12:21:32 -0500 | marked best answer | Passing large data messages Hi, I would like some suggestions or guidelines for the following design problem. I have a ROS node which maintains a fairly large data structure (a 3D map). I would like to publish it efficiently, so I can create independent packages that visualize or process the data. I can publish ROS messages as shared pointers using the nodelet architecture, but that still leaves the problem of converting the map structure to a ROS message. Translating the map structure to a ROS message is undesirable for two reasons
An alternative I can think of is to directly maintain the map data in my program as a ROS message, so no translation would be required. However, again I have the problem that the ROS messages only allow for vectors, so I'd be restricted in how I design the structure. Is my reasoning correct? Does anyone have a good solution to this problem? |
