第二章、配置xacro文件

0.前言

上一節已經將urdf導出來了，這一節需要配置一下xacro文件。先看一下導出的功能包在gazebo以及rviz中顯示的效果。

將功能包放進工作空間進行編譯，source一下環境，先看gazebo:

roslaunch tianracer_description gazebo.launch

可以看到模型已經加載到gazebo中的empty_world中了，此時模型還是白板，稍后可對顏色進行配置。

再看rviz,先修改tianracer_description/launch中的 arg name="gui" default="False"改為arg name="gui" default="True"

roslaunch tianracer_description display.launch

此時左側會出現joint_state_publisher的可視化窗口，拖動上邊的動態條即可控制小車的每個關節。

1.添加傳動裝置

新建tianracer_description.xacro文件，將urdf文件中的代碼復制過來，并對其進行修改。

上邊主要修改的內容是第一句修改為xacro聲明：

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <robot name="tianracer" xmlns:xacro="http://ros.org/wiki/xacro">

以及一些慣性參數的修改。

本次項目做的是基于twist消息的阿克曼轉向移動機器人，為實現該機器人的運動學，我們給兩個后輪以及連接兩個前輪的steer添加傳動裝置。為使用ROS控制驅動機器人，需要在模型中加入transmission元素，將傳動裝置與joint綁定。

<transmission name="right_steering_hinge_joint_trans"><type>transmission_interface/SimpleTransmission</type><joint name="right_steering_hinge_joint" ><hardwareInterface>hardware_interface/EffortJointInterface</hardwareInterface></joint><actuator name="right_steering_hinge_joint_motor"><hardwareInterface>hardware_interface/EffortJointInterface</hardwareInterface><mechanicalReduction>1</mechanicalReduction><motorTorqueConstant>100</motorTorqueConstant></actuator></transmission> <transmission name="left_steering_hinge_joint_trans"><type>transmission_interface/SimpleTransmission</type><joint name="left_steering_hinge_joint" ><hardwareInterface>hardware_interface/EffortJointInterface</hardwareInterface></joint><actuator name="left_steering_hinge_joint_motor"><hardwareInterface>hardware_interface/EffortJointInterface</hardwareInterface><mechanicalReduction>1</mechanicalReduction><motorTorqueConstant>100</motorTorqueConstant></actuator></transmission><transmission name="right_rear_wheel_joint_trans"><type>transmission_interface/SimpleTransmission</type><joint name="right_rear_wheel_joint" ><hardwareInterface>hardware_interface/VelocityJointInterface</hardwareInterface></joint><actuator name="right_rear_wheel_joint_motor"><hardwareInterface>hardware_interface/VelocityJointInterface</hardwareInterface><mechanicalReduction>1</mechanicalReduction></actuator></transmission> <transmission name="left_rear_wheel_joint_trans"><type>transmission_interface/SimpleTransmission</type><joint name="left_rear_wheel_joint" ><hardwareInterface>hardware_interface/VelocityJointInterface</hardwareInterface></joint><actuator name="left_rear_wheel_joint_motor"><hardwareInterface>hardware_interface/VelocityJointInterface</hardwareInterface><mechanicalReduction>1</mechanicalReduction></actuator></transmission>

2.添加插件? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

在與tianracer_description.xacro路徑相同路徑下新建tianracer.gazebo文件

添加gazebo插件

由于車輪實際上會接觸地面，因此會與地面發生物理相互作用，將各個link添加部件材料的附加信息，并且定義各個link的顏色信息。參考

[gazebo官網]?http://gazebosim.org/tutorials/?tut=ros_urdf

<gazebo reference="chassis"><mu1 value="0.0"/><mu2 value="0.0"/><kp value="10000000.0" /><kd value="1.0" /><material>Gazebo/Red</material> </gazebo> <gazebo reference="left_steering_hinge"><mu1 value="2.0"/><mu2 value="2.0"/><kp value="10000000.0" /><kd value="1.0" /><fdir1 value="1 0 0"/><material>Gazebo/Grey</material> </gazebo> <gazebo reference="left_rear_wheel"><mu1 value="2.0"/><mu2 value="2.0"/><kp value="10000000.0" /><kd value="1.0" /><fdir1 value="1 0 0"/><material>Gazebo/Black</material> </gazebo> <gazebo reference="right_steering_hinge"><mu1 value="2.0"/><mu2 value="2.0"/><kp value="10000000.0" /><kd value="1.0" /><fdir1 value="1 0 0"/><material>Gazebo/Grey</material> </gazebo> <gazebo reference="right_rear_wheel"><mu1 value="2.0"/><mu2 value="2.0"/><kp value="10000000.0" /><kd value="1.0" /><fdir1 value="1 0 0"/><material>Gazebo/Black</material> </gazebo> <gazebo reference="left_front_wheel"><mu1 value="2.0"/><mu2 value="2.0"/><kp value="10000000.0" /><kd value="1.0" /><fdir1 value="0 0 1"/><material>Gazebo/Black</material> </gazebo> <gazebo reference="right_front_wheel"><mu1 value="2.0"/><mu2 value="2.0"/><kp value="10000000.0" /><kd value="1.0" /><fdir1 value="0 0 1"/><material>Gazebo/Black</material> </gazebo>

添加ros_control插件

由于gazebo并沒阿克曼車型的插件，要鏈接gazebo與ros，我們先添加ros_control插件，它讀取所有transmission標記，以及joint_state_publisher插件

<gazebo><plugin name="gazebo_ros_control" filename="libgazebo_ros_control.so"><robotNamespace>/tianracer</robotNamespace><robotParam>robot_description</robotParam><robotSimType>gazebo_ros_control/DefaultRobotHWSim</robotSimType><legacyModeNS>true</legacyModeNS></plugin> </gazebo><gazebo><plugin name="joint_state_publisher" filename="libgazebo_ros_joint_state_publisher.so"><jointName>left_rear_wheel_joint, right_rear_wheel_joint, left_steering_hinge_joint, right_steering_hinge_joint, right_front_wheel_joint,left_ front_wheel_joint</jointName><updateRate>50.0</updateRate><robotNamespace>/tianracer</robotNamespace><alwaysOn>true</alwaysOn></plugin></gazebo>

?添加二維激光雷達插件

<!-- hokuyo --> <xacro:unless value="$(optenv DISABLE_GAZEBO_LASER false)"><gazebo reference="lidar"><material>Gazebo/Grey</material><sensor type="ray" name="hokuyo_sensor"><pose>0 0 0.0124 0 0 0</pose><visualize>false</visualize><update_rate>40</update_rate><ray><scan><horizontal><samples>1081</samples><resolution>1</resolution><min_angle>-2.3561944902</min_angle><max_angle>2.3561944902</max_angle></horizontal></scan><range><min>0.1</min><max>10.0</max><resolution>0.01</resolution></range><noise><mean>0.0</mean><stddev>0.01</stddev></noise></ray><plugin name="gazebo_ros_hokuyo_controller" filename="libgazebo_ros_laser.so"><topicName>/scan</topicName><frameName>lidar</frameName></plugin></sensor></gazebo> </xacro:unless>

注意雷達的名字需要與link名對應上。

添加單目攝像頭以及深度攝像頭插件

<!-- camera --><gazebo reference="camera"><material>Gazebo/Grey</material><sensor type="camera" name="camera1"><update_rate>30.0</update_rate><camera name="head"><horizontal_fov>1.3962634</horizontal_fov><image><width>800</width><height>800</height><format>R8G8B8</format></image><clip><near>0.02</near><far>300</far></clip><noise><type>gaussian</type><!-- Noise is sampled independently per pixel on each frame.That pixel's noise value is added to each of its colorchannels, which at that point lie in the range [0,1]. --><mean>0.0</mean><stddev>0.007</stddev></noise></camera><plugin name="camera_controller" filename="libgazebo_ros_camera.so"><alwaysOn>true</alwaysOn><updateRate>0.0</updateRate><cameraName>rrbot/camera1</cameraName><imageTopicName>image_raw</imageTopicName><cameraInfoTopicName>camera_info</cameraInfoTopicName><frameName>camera</frameName><hackBaseline>0.07</hackBaseline><distortionK1>0.0</distortionK1><distortionK2>0.0</distortionK2><distortionK3>0.0</distortionK3><distortionT1>0.0</distortionT1><distortionT2>0.0</distortionT2></plugin></sensor></gazebo><gazebo reference="real_sense"><sensor type="depth" name="real_sense"><always_on>true</always_on><update_rate>20.0</update_rate><camera><horizontal_fov>${60.0*3.14/180.0}</horizontal_fov><image><format>R8G8B8</format><width>640</width><height>480</height></image><clip><near>0.05</near><far>8.0</far></clip></camera><plugin name="kinect_real_sense_controller" filename="libgazebo_ros_openni_kinect.so"><cameraName>real_sense</cameraName><alwaysOn>true</alwaysOn><updateRate>10</updateRate><imageTopicName>rgb/image_raw</imageTopicName><depthImageTopicName>depth/image_raw</depthImageTopicName><pointCloudTopicName>depth/points</pointCloudTopicName><cameraInfoTopicName>rgb/camera_info</cameraInfoTopicName><depthImageCameraInfoTopicName>depth/camera_info</depthImageCameraInfoTopicName><frameName>real_sense</frameName><baseline>0.1</baseline><distortion_k1>0.0</distortion_k1><distortion_k2>0.0</distortion_k2><distortion_k3>0.0</distortion_k3><distortion_t1>0.0</distortion_t1><distortion_t2>0.0</distortion_t2><pointCloudCutoff>0.4</pointCloudCutoff></plugin></sensor></gazebo>

這里深度攝像頭的插件用kinect的插件代替。

最后將tianracer.gazebo添加到tianracer_description.xacro文件里邊：

<xacro:include filename="$(find tianracer_description)/urdf/tianracer.gazebo" />

小結

至此，我們已經配置好小車的各個link的顏色以及傳感器的插件，但我們仍無法讓小車運動起來，因為我們還未配置小車的controllers。下一節通過配置controllers讓小車動起來。
