不久前,我们发布了一个多点SLAM的功能包,今天给大家介绍这个功能包的开发思路。
开发背景:
在使用 ROS Navigation & RViz 进行 2D Nav Goal 导航的时候,我们会遇到这些情况:
- 给定导航的目标点只能设置一个,当有多点任务时需要等待一个个任务结束后,再次手动给目标
- 无法暂停或取消任务
- 任务不可循环
开发目的:
完成多目标点导航,可以对导航环节进行操控,如可循环、取消、重置任务等。
开发思路:
- 2D Nav Goal 的单点导航是如何实现的?
我们可以知道导航目标是通过 RViz 工具栏中 2D Nav Goal发布出去的。
通过查看 RViz的配置文件或者 Panels->Add New Panel-> Tool Property ,可以了解当使用2D Nav Goal 在地图上拉了一个箭头(给定目标点时),其实是向话题 /move_base_simple/goal 发布了 geometry_msgs/PoseStamped 类型的消息,这个是目标点的位姿,包含坐标点与朝向。
根据 NodeGraph 可以看到话题 /move_base_simple/goal 被导航包的节点 /move_base 订阅了,进而发给 Navigation 中的各个话题,完成导航。
- 如何基于单点实现多点导航?
要在单点基础上实现多目标点导航的话,就要设计一个关于多个导航目标点消息geometry_msgs/PoseStamped的数据结构,并对多个目标点进行处理,完成导航。
实现多点的方法有多种,在不打破 ROS Navigation 包的完整性的前提下,我选择在2D Nav Goal的 RViz节点和 /move_base 节点中间添加了一个话题 /move_base_simple/goal_temp,将原本发送给 /move_base_simple/goal 的消息,转发给/move_base_simple/goal_temp,通过此话题来积攒多个 2D Nav Goal(任务队列),并根据任务完成的状态反馈,按顺序将每个导航目标点消息 geometry_msgs/PoseStamped 再发送给话题/move_base_simple/goal,以完成多任务中的单次目标点的导航(如下图示)。
- 如何来发布多点任务?
像 2D Nav Goal 一样,我们也可以在 RViz 中开发可视化的操作栏,这要使用到 RViz plugin , ROS中的可视化工具绝大部分都是基于Qt进行开发的,此前古月居有过详细介绍,可参考这篇文章。
最终效果
首先,我们来看一下最终的实现效果。
MultiNaviGoalsPanel是多点SLAM导航任务的可视化操作区,包括任务点列表、循环、重置、取消、开始任务。
通过 RViz plugin 设计的Mark Display,能够显示的目标点的标号及箭头(朝向)。
源代码
项目地址:https://github.com/autolaborcenter/rviz_navi_multi_goals_pub_plugin
代码实现
1. 头文件 multi_navi_goal_panel.h
Qt说明:
- 文字编辑——QLineEdit
- 按键——QPushButton
- 列表——QTableWidget
- 复选框——QCheckBox
- 文字显示——QString
ROS说明:
Publisher:
- 发送每个目标点消息给/move_base_simple/goal的goal_pub_
- 发送取消指令消息给/move_base/cancel的cancel_pub_
- 发送文字和箭头标记的mark_pub_。
Subsrciber:
- 订阅来自rviz中2D Nav Goal的导航目标点消息的goal_sub_
- 订阅目前导航状态的status_sub_
