Nodes
power_monitor
power_monitor takes data from ocean_battery_driver and pr2_power_board and republishes it in a more user-friendly message format.
The estimation method that power_monitor uses is reconfigurable via dynamic_reconfigure. Two methods are currently available:
Fuel Gauge: simply publishes the state of charge and remaining time that the battery servers report.
Advanced: records a history of battery state over the lifetime of the robot (in a CSV file in /var/ros/power_monitor/power.log) and uses this data to improve the indicators.
Subscribed topics
battery/server2 (pr2_msgs/BatteryServer2)
- Battery data
- Power board state
Advertised topics
power_state (pr2_msgs/PowerState)
- State of the power system
Parameters
~frequency (float, default: 0.1)
- Frequency at which messages are published on power_state
- State of charge estimation method to use
- Location of file to record battery data
- Stop publishing power estimate if batteries haven't updated within this timeout. Set to <0 to always publish estimate.
