Nodes
robin_people_detection
This Node provides two tf between /base_footprint and /dominant_person, and /base_footprint and /group. The dominant Person is calculated by a weighted function from x and y distances (costs = x + 0.4*y). The group includes the average position of all detected persons. The z-coordinate of both tf is set to zero, to get the footprint of the person/group.Parameters
base_name (string)- Name of the parent frame for the provided transformations. Default: "/base_footprint".
Required tf Transforms
/base_footbrint → /torso_X- Transformation between the base footprint of the robot/kinect to the torso (can be more than 1) of the persons to detect.
Provided tf Transforms
/base_footbrint → /dominant_person- Transformation from base footprint of the robot/kinect to the base footprint of the dominant person.
- Transformation from base footprint of the robot/kinect to the base footprint of the group of persons.
