hokuyo激光雷达跑cartographer

1. 安装cartographer


参见之前的文章：http://blog.csdn.net/u010811078/article/details/59482473


2. 创建相关文件


创建demo_hokuyo.launch 进入 catkin_ws/src/cartographer_ros/cartographer_ros/launch/，将 下列代码写入demo_hokuyo.launch：

<launch>

  <param name="/use_sim_time" value="false" />


  <node name="cartographer_node" pkg="cartographer_ros"
      type="cartographer_node" args="
          -configuration_directory $(find cartographer_ros)/configuration_files
          -configuration_basename demo_hokuyo.lua"
      output="screen">
  </node>


  <node name="rviz" pkg="rviz" type="rviz" required="true"
      args="-d $(find cartographer_ros)/configuration_files/demo_hokuyo.rviz" />

</launch>

创建demo_hokuyo.lua 进入 catkin_ws/src/cartographer_ros/cartographer_ros/configuration_files/，将下列代码写入

demo_hokuyo.lua：

include "map_builder.lua"


options = {
  map_builder = MAP_BUILDER,
  map_frame = "map",
  tracking_frame = "laser",
  published_frame = "laser",
  odom_frame = "odom",
  provide_odom_frame = true,
  use_odometry_data = false,
  use_constant_odometry_variance = false,
  constant_odometry_translational_variance = 0.,
  constant_odometry_rotational_variance = 0.,
  use_horizontal_laser = true,
  use_horizontal_multi_echo_laser = false,
  horizontal_laser_min_range = 0.3,
  horizontal_laser_max_range = 30.,
  horizontal_laser_missing_echo_ray_length = 1.,
  num_lasers_3d = 0,
  lookup_transform_timeout_sec = 0.2,
  submap_publish_period_sec = 0.3,
  pose_publish_period_sec = 5e-3,
}


MAP_BUILDER.use_trajectory_builder_2d = true
TRAJECTORY_BUILDER_2D.use_imu_data = false
TRAJECTORY_BUILDER_2D.use_online_correlative_scan_matching = true
SPARSE_POSE_GRAPH.optimization_problem.huber_scale = 1e2

return options

创建demo_hokuyo.rviz 进入 catkin_ws/src/cartographer_ros/cartographer_ros/configuration_files/，将下列代码写入

3. 运行示例

①启动ROS

roscore

②新终端，启动hokuyo UTM-30LX

ls -l /dev/ttyACM0

若显示为crw-rw----，则为其加权限使其显示为crw-rw-rw-

sudo chmod a+rw /dev/ttyACM0

3.启动节点

rosrun hokuyo_node hokuyo_node

4.启动demo_hokuyo.launch
roslaunch cartographer_ros demo_hokuyo.launch

可能出现的错误如下：

[demo_backpack_2d.launch] is neither a launch file in package [cartographer_ros] nor is [cartographer_ros] a launch file name 

The traceback for the exception was written to the log file

这种错误的主要原因是ros的catkin_ws配置问题，可以运行rospack profile试试。

$ source ~/catkin/devel/setup.bash( cartographer_ros安装路径)

$ rospack profile

再重新启动demo_hokuyo.launch

接下来移动激光雷达去建图，就可以看到使用hokuyo激光雷达跑cartographer的建图效果了。
