Nodes

evarobot_controller

evarobot_controller is basic PID controller to drive the Evarobot with referance velocities. evarobot_controller takes reference and measured velocities and outputs calculated velocities which will be applied to the Evarobot.

Subscribed Topics

cmd_vel (geometry_msgs/Twist)

• Reference velocities of linear and angular.

wheel_vel (geometry_msgs/PointStamped)

• Measured velocities of left and right wheels.

Published Topics

cntr_wheel_vel (geometry_msgs/Twist)

• Calculated velocities by PID controller.

Parameters

~desiredTopic (string, default: cmd_vel)

• Topic name of reference velocities.

~measuredTopic (string, default: wheel_vel)

• Topic name of measured velocities.

~controllerTopic (string, default: cntr_wheel_vel)
