To start the WheeledRobin in a faked odometry mode the '_fake' launch files in wheeled_robin_bringup.
Nodes
wheeled_robin_node
This node simulates a robot by summing up cmd_vel commands and publishing a faked perfect odometry of the robot. No physical calculations are done.Subscribed Topics
cmd_vel (geometry_msgs/Twist)- Desired velocity for WheeledRobin (x, theta)
Published Topics
odom (nav_msgs/Odometry)- Odometry of WheeledRobin.
- Joint State for the left and right wheel.
Provided tf Transforms
odom → base_footprint- Depends on the odometry of WheeledRobin
- Depends on the pitch angle of WheeledRobin which is estimated proportional to the linear velocity.
