accurate_docking

This package contains a node (accurate_docking) that automates the accurate dock of the robot to a point.

1 accurate_docking_node

Test program to perform a docking to any frame with the maximum accuracy. It combines a set of movement primitives [dock, dock, rotate, move forward, move backward] to reach the desired target goal, measure the error and get back to the initial position. It also saves the errors comitted on every iteration. These errors can be exported to csv. Component based on Robotnik RComponet.

1.1 Parameters

  • ~dock_action_server (string, default: pp_docker) Robotnik's docker action server used
  • ~move_action_server (string, default: move) Robotnik's move action server used
  • ~pregoal_frame (string, default: laser_test_pregoal_footprint) Target frame to perform a pregoal approach. This frame can be the same one than goal frame
  • ~goal_frame (string, default: laser_test_goal_footprint) Target frame
  • ~base_frame (string, default: robot_base_footprint) Robot's base frame
  • ~pregoal_offset_1([], default: [-0.5, 0, 0]) Offset (x, y, theta) applied to the first dock action
  • ~pregoal_offset_1([], default: [-0.5, 0, 0]) Offset (x, y, theta) applied to the first dock action
  • ~step_back_distance([]double, default: 1.3) Distance to move back the robot after reaching the target goal and measuring the error.
  • ~consecutive_iterations(int, default: 1]) Number of consecutive iterations performed
