megarover_samples_ros2

Introduction

This is a ROS 2 Package to develop package of megarover using Gazebo. I used model, mesh and world files of https://github.com/vstoneofficial/megarover_samples as a reference.

If you use ROS 2 Jazzy, please check jazzy branch.

Requirements

• ROS 2 Humble
• Classic Gazebo or Gazebo Fortress

And, I have tested with Eclipse Cyclone DDS as RMW implementation. If you use this RMW implementation, please install according to the following command.

sudo apt install ros-humble-rmw-cyclonedds-cpp
export RMW_IMPLEMENTATION=rmw_cyclonedds_cpp

Build

mkdir -p ~/dev_ws/src
cd ~/dev_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/atinfinity/megarover_samples_ros2.git
cd ..
rosdep install -y -i --from-paths src/megarover_samples_ros2
colcon build --symlink-install
source ~/dev_ws/install/setup.bash

Mapping

Launch Gazebo

If you use headless mode, add the option gui:=false.

ros2 launch megarover_samples_ros2 vmegarover_with_sample_world.launch.py

NOTE (humble only):

In humble, gazebo_ros2_control can be activated. If you want to do activation with gazebo_ros2_control, add the option use_ros2_control:=true. However, at this time, gazebo_ros2_control and is still under development and unstable.

ros2 launch megarover_samples_ros2 vmegarover_with_sample_world.launch.py use_ros2_control:=true

In addition, with gazebo:=ignition option, it is possible to start with an Ignition Gazebo.

ros2 launch megarover_samples_ros2 vmegarover_with_sample_world.launch.py gazebo:=ignition use_ros2_control:=true

Launch Slam Toolbox for Mapping

ros2 launch megarover_samples_ros2 vmegarover_mapping.launch.py

Launch Teleop

ros2 run teleop_twist_keyboard teleop_twist_keyboard

Save Map

mkdir ~/maps
ros2 launch megarover_samples_ros2 vmegarover_save_map.launch.py

Navigation

Launch Gazebo

If you use headless mode, add the option gui:=false.

ros2 launch megarover_samples_ros2 vmegarover_with_sample_world.launch.py

Launch Navigation

ros2 launch megarover_samples_ros2 vmegarover_navigation.launch.py map:=$HOME/maps/vmegarover_samplemap.yaml

ToDo
