I’m a bit confuse
When using SIM mode
The file ros2_control.xacro define the differential wheel plug in for gazebo through the yaml files
the file gazebo_control.xacro define diff_drive plugin
isn’t redundant? what do I miss with my understanding?
@JoshNewans Hi! Firstly, amazing tutorial which clearly explains how to interface to a real robot. However, I am facing an issue when launching the real robot. The error is as below
[ros2_control_node-2] [INFO] [1694504172.944274701] [resource_manager]: Loading hardware ‘RealRobot’
[ros2_control_node-2] [INFO] [1694504172.946497851] [resource_manager]: Initialize hardware ‘RealRobot’
[ros2_control_node-2] terminate called after throwing an instance of ‘std::invalid_argument’
I figured the error occurs in the ros2_control/hardware_interface/resource_manager.cpp file. The specific line where the error occurs I think is this:
const rclcpp_lifecycle::State new_state = hardware.initialize(hardware_info);
I’m using an Arduino Mega instead. I have tested my bot with the ros_arduino_bridge package and it works fine when running miniterm. Is there a way to resolve this? Thank you!
Hi, thank you for all your work on those videos, which I love learning from.
I’m trying to create my own robot under ROS 2 Humble. It seems that I have successfully managed to use Nav2. However, I don’t understand how ROS 2 Control is used by Nav2. What does Nav2 Controller Server and Planner use to work? And finally, the most important question: Is there any controller from ROS 2 Control for controlling a 3-wheel omnidirectional robot?
Hey Josh,
First of all, thanks for all these great tutorials! They are helping me loads during my studies and thanks for replying. This is for a school project, so i appreciate all the help i can get.
I get the same error message as Samet_Elmaci in this thread:
Discussion - Changes for running mobile robot on Humble/Jammy - #14 by Samet_Elmaci .
Some information about my setup:
I am using ros2 humble in a docker container. I have the exact same hardware setup as you for ease of following your tutorials. I have forwarded the USB ports on the pi to the container, so i am able to get lidar data and control the motors. Therefore the container setup itself is not likely the issue.
I have cloned the repo for articubot_one (humble branch) and the error happens when i try to run the the launch_robot.launch.py. I have tried various things to fix the issue:
Things i am going to try:

Hi Josh,
I find your videos awsome!!!
Would you mind to plan a topic also using some kind of 9dof sensor (for example bno055) for better navigation? Are they really needed or SLAM is enoough?
Thank you very much!
Cheers,
Ivo
hi im new to Ros and needed some help. From the tutorials i have leard few thing and iwas able to build a 4WD diff_drive robot ( GitHub - The-Kriz/rog_ros_bot )
but was able to run the bot in sim, but didnt have the luck to make the actual bot run as i coudint figure out how to write code for the hardware part ( i only know basic arduino code )
can someone help me to convert or let me know what all i should change from the provided code for 2WD diff_drive to 4WD diff_drive
thanks you,
Kriz
HI,
It was a great lecture, thanks for sharing with us. I was able to follow most part of it, but i was unable to understand how input and output ports are connected in the hardware interface plugin.
thanks a lot for sharing with us.
Hi @JoshNewans
Thank you for the great work!
I have a question and would appreciate your help.
Could you please explain the rationale behind the specific formula used in the setMotorValues method for converting angular velocity to encoder counts per control loop iteration?
arduino_.setMotorValues(l_wheel_.cmd / l_wheel_.rads_per_count / cfg_.loop_rate, r_wheel_.cmd / r_wheel_.rads_per_count / cfg_.loop_rate);
Specifically, why are the desired angular velocities divided by both the rads_per_count conversion factor and the loop_rate ?
If I were to adapt this code for a different robot with different hardware or control requirements, what aspects of this line would I need to modify?
I seem to be having a problem with the teleop_twist_joy node not auto-repeating.
I used ros2 topic echo /diff_cont/cmd_vel_unstamped to monitor the command being sent when I was using the joy stick to control the robot.
Initial I would see the command and the robot would move. But after a few seconds, no more commands would be sent even when the joystick is held full forward with the enable button pressed.
I have the “autorepeat_rate” set to 20.0 in the joystick.yaml file.
What am I missing?
Any ideas would be welcome. Thank you
I watched the video “You can use ANY hardware with ros2_control”, I downloaded the code of that video, The purpose of that code is that I want to use the frame available in the code to connect to the arduino mega board. Currently I am in the stage of connecting ros2_control to arduino through the code framework available in the video, But I have connection problems when launching the diffbot.launch.py file, currently I am working on the ros_humble version. I’m really sorry that my English sentence seems grammatically incorrect. Thank you everyone for your help.
I just edited the device parameter:
Thank you very much @JoshNewans for such a useful content! I’m facing one issue. My real robot wheels are moving fine but in rviz2 it is not moving. The tf is also not moving. Fixed frame is ‘odom’. Tried other fixed frame but of no avail. Don’t know the real problem. If anyone knows about this issue, please help me out. Thanks once again.
Hi @JoshNewans I have learned a lot from your tutorials and applying them on my graduation project so thank you for all the work you have done I would not got anywhere without your generous help

my initial thoughts that it dose not see the “my_controllers.yaml” file but it runs the “joint_broad” without any problems
Hi Josh!
I’m planning to simulate an AUV for 3D underwater object tracking with camera sensor using ROS and Gazebo. Do you have Any recommendations on the ROS version, Gazebo version, and plugins for simulation this scenario? or GitHub directory?
hello, i have problem with the diffdrive_arduino, it can’t be compiled. im using the ubuntu 22.04 with ros humble and i can install the ros-foxy, so i use the ros-humble. but after i install the ros-humble-ros2-control & ros-humble-ros2-controllers the diffdrive_arduino still won’t compiled. can u help me?? thankyou

Hi Josh ,
I’m having the same issue like others with controller manager some how is not working .
I’ve been stuck in this for 4 days now with no luck ! any chance you recommend something ? I echo /cmd_vel_unstamped in robot and I can see the values passing

make you clone the " humble " Branch from josh repo . This should solve your issue .
Hi Josh,
i am trying to launch launch_robot.lauch.py but in my dev machine to try the motors with teleop and i got this problem when launch it (Note i donot have diffarduino_drive in my packages and when i try to have it and build it , it give me error)
