Discussion - Running ros2_control on a real robot (Making a Mobile Robot Pt 13)

nam_Duong · 25 November 2023 06:06

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
I have been running into issues when I run the “launch_robot.launch.py” on the RasberryPi while it works perfectly on my laptop and in both cases the Arduino board works fine but I do not seem to load “diff_cont” for some reason on the Pi here is the error I get

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?

Agnes_Soesanto · 29 November 2023 03:14

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 .

I was able to resolve this issue by cloning the repo from buzzology github and then rebuilt the whole project with colcon .

hey Josh, thanks for the amazing tutorial and the generous content in general
i see you have commented on this issue before but i can’t seem to figure it out yet it happens on both the machine and the pi

See the documentation on the hardware_interface for the ros2_control, on github

Migration from Foxy to newer versions

Between Foxy and Galactic we made substantial changes to the interface of hardware components to enable management of their lifecycle. The following list shows a set of quick changes to port existing hardware components to Galactic:

Rename configure to on_init and change return type to CallbackReturn
If using BaseInterface as base class then you should remove it. Specifically, change:

hardware_interface::BaseInterface<hardware_interface::[Actuator|Sensor|System]Interface>

to

hardware_interface::[Actuator|Sensor|System]Interface

Remove include of headers base_interface.hpp and hardware_interface_status_values.hpp

martoliod · 15 January 2024 10:45

Hey @Afiq003,
i got the same error… but as @JoshNewans:

i’m a bit confused by your solution.

what exactly did u do to resolve this? Thanks alot in advance!

EDIT: found the issue. in rsp.launch.py i needed to insert an blank before the “sim_mode” parameter as follows:

old:

robot_description_config = Command(['xacro ‘, xacro_file, ’ use_ros2_control:=’, use_ros2_control, ‘sim_mode:=’, use_sim_time])

new:

robot_description_config = Command([‘xacro ‘, xacro_file, ’ use_ros2_control:=’, use_ros2_control, ’ sim_mode:=’, use_sim_time])

KaushikBoora · 15 March 2024 14:01

Hi @JoshNewans thanks a lot for the videos, They helped me a lot to understand ROS2 and how to build a differential drive bot. I am working on a 4 WD and have been following your tutorials until " [Using ros2_control to drive our robot (off the edge of the bench...)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VVrTCnxvSw&t=601s)" video. I am facing some trouble after changing to ros2_control, The issue is that my robot is not moving either left or right in gazebo but it seems to move in Rviz as expected. I have searched all the online resources but did not find anything that helps.
here is the link to my repo GitHub - BooraKaushik/autobot
Video of what is happening, IMG_5920.mov - Google Drive
as you can see it is turning fine in rviz but not in gazebo.

I would really appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Kaushik Boora

Hi guys. I am new to ROS2 and I am following @JoshNewans tutorial to make my own robot. I am using an arduino uno board with polulu motors. I was able to make the robot work in gazebo/rviz but when I downloaded the diffdrive controller from Josh’ github and started to port it on the robot using RPI 3b+, I get the error:

UNAIB_USMANI · 21 March 2024 08:17

hi , i m an issue while launch ros2 control list hardware interface output will coming like this could not contact to service controller manager

can anyone please help me out

Hamza_Anwar · 25 March 2024 09:12

It worked for me. For reference, I switched to ROS foxy but the issue persisted. I was connected to RPi over ssh and using nano for editing. I ultimately connected to vscode over remote connection, replaced all my code with the snippets provided in the blog by Josh ( I did this to ros2_control.xacroa and the launch_robot.launch.py files though I couldn’t see any difference between the two), removed the gazebo_control part completely instead of commenting it out and recompiled and run the launch file. It worked… Thankyou everyone and specially @JoshNewans for these great tutorials.

Lakess · 4 April 2024 11:12

Hi Josh
I’m trying to run “ros2 launch articubot_one launch_robot.launch.py” but get this error, I wonder if you can guide me to a solution. Thanks

I’ve been banging on this for some time and would appreciate any help that someone can offer. I’ve followed the update instructions for Humble to the best of my ability and can run everything in the simulated environment. The error comes when I try to run on the real robot. I get this error:

[ros2_control_node-3] [WARN] [1717166914.463673109] [controller_manager]: [Deprecated] Passing the robot description parameter directly to the control_manager node is deprecated. Use ‘~/robot_description’ topic from ‘robot_state_publisher’ instead.
