Good work guys, I'll look through your progress and have some suggestions for next steps at Thursday's meeting
Haven't done much. Currently just learning how to use rospy, the whole environment is set up and can be run. Just need to know how to implement the functions.
Connected all the publishers and subscribers with (hopefully) the correct message types after the conversion math. The math for linear/angular velocities might be somewhat wrong, though. Also trying to learn ros and python syntax more deeply.
Getting more familiar with the python syntax and libraries and i rewrote some old code from last year from c++ into python. Also, we have the math figured out partially for linear and angular velocities of the motors, may need to account for more stuff though. I'm trying to understand ros more deeply.
I think the math is working here now, there was one small division issue but otherwise it works as expected. So the main functionality of this node is finished. Next step is to read the wheel radius and wheel separation from the parameter server and pass those into the function, rather than hard coding them
Names for the parameters: "wheel_radius" "wheel_base_separation"
Made a few additions:
Next steps:
After those tasks are done, I think this issue should be just about done
I can't think of any obvious improvements to what we've got right now and the current version works as expected. Going to close the issue now.
Which section of robot code is this for? Drive Control
