Notice
Turtlebot Calibration is used for iRobot create base TurtleBot gyro calibration. Kobuki base does not need any gyro calibration. |
Overview
The current calibration accounts for the following two factors:
- The gyros installed in the robot are relatively cheap and do not have exactly the same properties. There has been observed about a 10% difference in the linear rates reported by different units tested.
- The odometry is affected by the floor surface. Between common livingroom carpet and linoleum floors at 10% difference in reporting has also been observed.
There are more areas to improve:
- compensating for linear distance on different carpets
- an effect of the traveling velocity on the odometry has also been observed, with a larger error at mid-range speeds.
