turtlebot3_gazebo: no "odom" frame #219

Open doctorcolossus opened 5 months ago

doctorcolossus commented 5 months ago

I am using ROS Noetic on Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS 5.10.104-tegra on a Jetson NX.

My ultimate goal is to run the example launch file for leggedrobotics/elevation_mapping_cupy, which uses turtlebot3_gazebo in its sourced elevation_mapping_cupy/launch/turtlesim_init.launch.

export TURTLEBOT3_MODEL=waffle
roslaunch elevation_mapping_cupy turtlesim_simple_example.launch

It gives me a lot of errors like: "odom" passed to lookupTransform argument target_frame does not exist.

Meanwhile the turtlebot in gazebo remains as a white blob. Screenshot from 2024-05-30 20-28-32

@ZhoZhicheng opened elevation_mapping_cupy issue 78 for the same problem, and maintainer @mktk1117 closed the issue, stating that it is a turtlebot issue and not their problem. I followed up with the @ZhoZhicheng, who confirmed that it did indeed turn out to be a turtlebot bug which which was supposedly "easy to solve", although they cannot recall how...

The tf tree looks like this: frames So clearly, as stated in the error, there is no 'odom' frame, which I guess is supposed to be there.

I found two issues, both unresolved, where people described the "odom" frame being disconnected from the rest of the tree: turtlebot3 issue 7790 and turtlebot3_simulations issue 214. In both of those issues, the "odom" frame exists, but is disconnected from the rest of the tree. For me, it doesn't appear to exist at all. In the first of those two issues, @ROBOTIS-Ashe advised installing all dependent ROS packages and @DingoOz advised remembering to source devel/setup.bash in the catkin build directory, but OP @abdur78 did not respond further, and the issue remains open three years later. But in my case, I had already remembered to source my /devel/setup.bash, as well as /opt/ros/noetic/setup.bash. Doing so again did not resolve the issue. I had apparently not installed all of the dependent ROS packages, but installing those did not resolve the issue either.

Before installing the missing dependent packages, I had these apt packages installed:

I noticed that the author of this official video about getting started with TurtleBot3 in ROS1 Noetic cloned turtlebot3 and turtlebot3_simulations from the github repo and built with catkin, rather than installing them via apt. I tried that, they built fine, and I re-sourced, but this did not resolve the issue either.

With roslaunch turtlebot3_bringup turtlebot3_model.launch, there's also no "odom": Screenshot from 2024-05-30 21-39-21

When I run roslaunch turtlebot3_gazebo turtlebot3_empty_world.launch, the turtlebot visually appears in gazebo: Screenshot from 2024-05-30 20-56-41

However, no tf data seems to be published: Screenshot from 2024-05-30 21-00-23

It's the same with roslaunch turtlebot3_gazebo turtlebot3_world.launch: Screenshot from 2024-05-30 21-06-50

But with roslaunch turtlebot3_fake turtlebot3_fake.launch, the tf tree shows up and includes "odom": Screenshot from 2024-05-30 21-10-28

In addition to experiencing the missing "odom" issue on the aforementioned bare-metal Jetson device, I am able to replicate it in a docker container built from the following Dockerfile I've made for elevation_mapping_cupy:

`Dockerfile` for `elevation_mapping_cupy` FROM nvidia/cuda:12.3.2-cudnn9-devel-ubuntu20.04 ARG DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive ARG ROS_DISTRO=noetic RUN apt-key adv \ --keyserver "hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80" \ --recv-key C1CF6E31E6BADE8868B172B4F42ED6FBAB17C654 && \ echo "deb http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu focal main" \ > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros-latest.list && \ apt-get update && \ apt-get install \ --yes \ --no-install-recommends \ git \ libboost-all-dev \ libeigen3-dev \ libgmp-dev \ libmpfr-dev \ libopencv-dev \ python3-pip \ python3.8 \ ros-$ROS_DISTRO-grid-map-core \ ros-$ROS_DISTRO-grid-map-msgs \ ros-$ROS_DISTRO-grid-map-ros \ ros-$ROS_DISTRO-grid-map-rviz-plugin \ ros-$ROS_DISTRO-pcl-ros \ ros-$ROS_DISTRO-pybind11-catkin \ ros-$ROS_DISTRO-robot-state-publisher \ ros-$ROS_DISTRO-ros-base \ ros-$ROS_DISTRO-ros-numpy \ ros-$ROS_DISTRO-tf-conversions \ ros-$ROS_DISTRO-turtlebot3-gazebo \ ros-$ROS_DISTRO-turtlebot3-teleop && \ apt-get clean && \ pip3 install --upgrade \ catkin-tools \ cupy-cuda12x \ matplotlib \ networkx==3.0 \ opencv-python \ scikit-learn \ ruamel.yaml \ scikit-image==0.19 \ scipy==1.7 \ shapely==1.7.1 \ simple-parsing && \ pip3 install \ torch \ torchvision \ torchaudio \ --index-url "https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu118" && \ pip3 install \ numpy==1.22 \ "git+https://github.com/facebookresearch/detectron2.git" && \ mkdir -p /catkin_ws/src && \ cd /catkin_ws/src && \ git clone https://github.com/leggedrobotics/elevation_mapping_cupy && \ cd /catkin_ws && \ . /opt/ros/$ROS_DISTRO/setup.sh && \ catkin init && \ catkin build RUN echo "source /opt/ros/noetic/setup.bash" >> /etc/bash.bashrc && \ echo "source /catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash" >> /etc/bash.bashrc ENV TURTLEBOT3_MODEL=waffle

I run the image with the following script, which assumes that the image is named elevation_mapping_cupy and whose purpose is to allow GUI programs to run through the host X server:

`run.sh` containerID=$(docker create \ --device /dev/dri \ --env="DISPLAY" \ --env="QT_X11_NO_MITSHM=1" \ --interactive \ --rm \ --tty \ --volume="/tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix:rw" \ elevation_mapping_cupy) hostname=$(docker inspect --format='{{ .Config.Hostname }}' $containerID) xhost +local:$hostname docker start --interactive $containerID xhost -local:$hostname

To run that exact image, you'll need an NVIDIA graphics card with CUDA and the NVIDIA container toolkit, plus an X server, and you'll need to adjust the base image and pip installed major version of cupy. But the point with this Dockerfile is to show that the missing "odom" behavior doesn't only happen only in one environment. I've run the built container on a completely different machine and architecture, and still don't see any "odom" frame. This Dockerfile doesn't include the so-called dependent ROS packages, but as I noted above, installing those didn't change anything with the missing "odom", and yes, I did try this also in the running docker container and re-sourcing.

For a more minimal example, I made the following Dockerfile which includes all of the so-called dependent packages, doesn't require any GPU, and builds turtlebot3_simulations and turtlebot3_simulations with catkin_build:

Run it with:

`run.sh` #!/bin/bash containerID=$(docker create \ --env="DISPLAY" \ --env="QT_X11_NO_MITSHM=1" \ --interactive \ --rm \ --tty \ --volume="/tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix:rw" \ turtlebot3 \ roslaunch turtlebot3_bringup turtlebot3_model.launch) echo "container ID: $containerID" hostname=$(docker inspect --format='{{ .Config.Hostname }}' $containerID) echo "hostname: $hostname" xhost +local:$hostname xhost docker start --interactive $containerID xhost -local:$hostname

Then in another window, to view the tf tree (replace boring_noether with the name of the running container, which you can get from docker ps):

docker exec \
  --env="DISPLAY" \
  --env="QT_X11_NO_MITSHM=1" \
  --interactive \
  --tty \
  boring_noether \
  /bin/bash -c "source /opt/ros/noetic/setup.bash; "`\
  `"source /catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash; "`\
  `"rosrun rqt_tf_tree rqt_tf_tree"

With this, I again see no "odom": Screenshot from 2024-05-30 23-03-14

Am I missing something simple, or is this a bug? In the latter case, is there any fix or workaround?

ZhoZhicheng commented 5 months ago

It looks like a problem between turtlebot and gazebo. Perhaps you can check if ros-noetic-turtlebot3-gazebo is installed. If not, the model in gazebo may wrong.

doctorcolossus commented 5 months ago

Hi @ZhoZhicheng, thank you for your idea. I listed my ROS-related apt packages above, and as you can see, ros-noetic-turtlebot3-gazebo/focal is installed. What do you mean that the model in Gazebo may be wrong? Do you know how that could be checked or fixed?

margaridaaranha7 commented 2 months ago

Hello @doctorcolossus did you end up resolving this issue? I am facing the same problem with a pioneer3at model

doctorcolossus commented 2 months ago

Hey @margaridaaranha7, yes, I think that I eventually resolved the problem by installing apt package ros-noetic-gazebo-plugins, which of course isn't mentioned in the documentation, and I guess I never bothered to follow up here since nobody from ROBOTIS ever bothered to respond to or even acknowledge my painstakingly-detailed issue, as sadly seems to be common practice within the open-source robotics community... Apparently some plugin provided by that package is responsible for publishing the turtlebot odom topic. Here's hoping that will help you too!

margaridaaranha7 commented 2 months ago

Hello again, @doctorcolossus :)

Thank you so much for your quick and detailed response! I really appreciate it.

Unfortunately, I already had the ros-noetic-gazebo-plugins package installed, but I managed to solve the problem, so I wanted to share my solution here in case it helps someone else.

My issue was that the odom frame wasn’t being displayed when I used tools like rosrun tf2_tools view_frames.py or rosrun rqt_tf_tree rqt_tf_tree to visualize my TF tree.

However, when I ran rostopic echo /odom, the messages included: ``` header: seq: 80151 stamp: secs: 11483 nsecs: 310000000 frame_id: "odom" child_frame_id: "" pose: pose: position: x: -9.12721749882979 y: 2.9264965200502067 z: 0.03184460947562248 orientation: x: 0.0003017247532601906 y: 0.0002546788249706186 z: -0.3187211013381243 w: 0.9478484602839647 covariance: [1e-05, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1e-05, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1000000000000.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1000000000000.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1000000000000.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.001] twist: twist: linear: x: -0.00029234276300310933 y: 0.0008103730168930877 z: 0.0 angular: x: 0.0 y: 0.0 z: 0.002906026133653545 covariance: [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] ```

frame_id: "odom"

So, after some investigation, I realized the problem was with my pioneer3at model (which I was using from p2os).

It was using this Gazebo plugin (from the last part of the pioneer3at_body.xacro file), which didn’t maintain an odom frame. I believe another tool might be needed to handle this. ``` 100.0 / p3at_front_left_wheel_joint p3at_front_right_wheel_joint p3at_back_left_wheel_joint p3at_back_right_wheel_joint 0.4 0.215 base_link 200 cmd_vel ```

Since p2os also provides the pioneer3dx model, I gave that a try, and it worked perfectly!

I ended up using the pioneer3dx Gazebo plugin for the pioneer3at model (actually two plugins), and that solved the issue. ``` false true 100.0 p3at_front_left_wheel_joint p3at_front_right_wheel_joint 0.4 0.215 5 / cmd_vel odom ENCODER odom base_link 1 true 100.0 base_link base_pose_ground_truth 0.01 map 0 0 0 0 0 0 ```

I’m still fairly new to ROS and Gazebo, so I hope this explanation makes sense. I just wanted to share what I learned, and I hope it can help someone else facing a similar issue!

@doctorcolossus, thanks a lot, your solution worked for me.
