Robot Operating System (ROS) is a software framework for robot software development, providing operating system-like functionality on a heterogenous computer cluster. ROS was originally developed in 2007 under the name switchyard by the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory in support of the Stanford AI Robot (STAIR) project. As of 2008, development continues primarily at Willow Garage, a robotics research institute/incubator. In 2013 it was picked up by the Open Source Robotics Foundation [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ROS_%28Robot_Operating_System%29 ROS Wikipedia Overview]

== Phidgets Motor Controller Rewrite ==
 +
 +
I was unable to configure the Phidgets ROS motor control to working with the navigation stack.
 +
Quick experiments
 +
documented in [[Motor_Control_6x_Hack_for_Navigation]] page demonstrated that the motor driver was not
 +
coming up to the requested cmd_vel Twist message speed. This section documents my effort to rewrite
 +
the motor controller driver. It also documents anomalies in the Phidgets ROS odometry node.

ROS master and client computers were configured to coordinate with publish and subscribe message.

These approaches were unusable. Adams was too slow to work with video. The iMac was capable. Twist messages where too delayed for effective control. See the following pages. This approach was abandoned in favor of investigating rosbridge.

Overview

The focus of this project is learning ROS, SW architecture, AI algorithms and navigation. ROS is of great value because it allows me to pick and choose what I want to learn and what I want to reuse. The goal is to have fun and keep a recently retired SW architect mind in the game. There is no attempt to make this site of value to anyone else. However, I certainly don't mind if you find it of value.

Robot Operating System (ROS) is a software framework for robot software development, providing operating system-like functionality on a heterogenous computer cluster. ROS was originally developed in 2007 under the name switchyard by the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory in support of the Stanford AI Robot (STAIR) project. As of 2008, development continues primarily at Willow Garage, a robotics research institute/incubator. In 2013 it was picked up by the Open Source Robotics Foundation ROS Wikipedia Overview

I was unable to configure the Phidgets ROS motor control to working with the navigation stack. Quick experiments documented in Motor_Control_6x_Hack_for_Navigation page demonstrated that the motor driver was not coming up to the requested cmd_vel Twist message speed. This section documents my effort to rewrite the motor controller driver. It also documents anomalies in the Phidgets ROS odometry node.

  • The master named hood (i5 NUC) is on the floor hugger robot. It subscribes to Twist messages. In one version it publishes video frames and in another it hosts a video streaming server.
  • The remote client named adams (atom netbook) is on the desk with a joystick connected to it. It publishes Twist messages.
