上一章讲到使用第三方包来实现仿真小车的移动,这一章我们来创建一个自己的仿真小车,并使它在rviz中移动。
我会稍微介绍以下知识
- urdf文件语法
- tf广播与坐标转换
一、urdf语法
有这方面知识的同学可以跳过。
a)什么是urdf?
用于统一机器人描述格式(URDF)的C ++解析器,它是用于表示机器人模型的XML格式。(google翻译)也就是说,如果你想在ros平台中,仿真出来一个机器人,你就需要用这个包来描述一个仿真机器人。
b)urdf的标签
官网上介绍了这几种标签
1. link:描述链接的运动和动态属性。
2. joint:描述接头的运动学和动态特性。
3. gazebo:描述仿真性能,如阻尼,摩擦等。
4. sensor:描述一个传感器,如相机,射线传感器等。
5. model_state:描述某一时间模型的状态。
6. model:描述机器人结构的运动学和动态特性。
7. transmission:传动装置将执行机构连接到接头上,代表其机械联轴器。
8. sensor/proposals:描述一个传感器,如相机,射线传感器等。
我们这次用到的标签是<link>与<joint>
。
我们这里先给出一个模型,这是官网写好的。

这个就是官网上写好的,每个人都会有这个模型。就在这个文件夹/opt/ros/kinetic/share/urdf_tutorial/urdf
然后我们可以运行看看roslaunch urdf_tutorial display.launch model:='$(find urdf_tutorial)/urdf/05-visual.urdf'
二、tf广播与坐标转换
先来扯一点物理知识。中学物理告诉我们,位移是相对的,你意识到某件物体在移动,那么在你的意识里必定会有一个参考系,物体相对于参考系在移动。在仿真世界中也是这样的,如果你想要小车移动,那么你必须告诉rviz,我们选择一个不动的物体作为参考系,然后小车相对于这个参考系,距离越来越远,这样我们就可以看到小车在仿真世界中移动了!
那么我们只需下面这些步骤:
- 编写监听传感器(我这里用的是手柄)
- 传感器数据使用tf坐标转换,转成tf格式的消息。
- 在rviz中看我们的成果
这是我的文档结构,tf_boradcaster.py写的就是监听传感器并使用tf坐标转换
#!/usr/bin/env python
#coding=utf-8
import rospy
import tf
from sensor_msgs.msg import Joy
def handle_turtle_pose(msg):
br = tf.TransformBroadcaster()
br.sendTransform((msg.axes[4], msg.axes[3], 0),
tf.transformations.quaternion_from_euler(0, 0, msg.axes[0]),
rospy.Time.now(),
"odom",#固定坐标叫什么都可以
"base_link")#你的物体的参考系 link标签里面的name属性值都可以
if __name__ == '__main__':
rospy.init_node('my_tf')
rospy.Subscriber('joy',
Joy,#手柄节点的消息类型
handle_turtle_pose)
rospy.spin()
因为使用了一些依赖,所以我们在CMakeLists.txt
中加载依赖,在CMakeLists.txt
文件中找到
find_package(catkin REQUIRED#加上后面的东西,重新catkin_make就行了
rospy
tf
sensor_msgs
)
这里把urdf.rviz中的配置发一下,也是直接拿另一个包写好的

然后这个是launch文件
<launch>
<arg name="rvizconfig" default="$(find test_move)/rviz/urdf.rviz" />
<param name="robot_description" command="$(find xacro)/xacro.py '$(find test_move)/urdf/my_robot.urdf'" />
<node name="joint_state_publisher" pkg="joint_state_publisher" type="joint_state_publisher" />
<node name="robot_state_publisher" pkg="robot_state_publisher" type="state_publisher" />
<node name='joy_run' pkg="joy" type="joy_node" output="screen"/>
<node name="takler" pkg="test_move" type="tf_broadcaster.py"/>
<node name="rviz" pkg="rviz" type="rviz" args="-d $(arg rvizconfig)" required="true" />
</launch>
注意里面的test_move换成你自己的包名就好了。
然后我们
roslaunch test_move display.launch
就可以启动一个可以用手柄操控的仿真机器人了
