[ROS] Controller Package

info

NOTE :

  • The test is done on ROS Kinetic Kame installed in Ubuntu 16.04.
  • The test is done on ROS Melodic Moreniainstalled in Ubuntu 18.04.
  • Make sure ROS dependencies are installed before performing these instructions - Install ROS Packages

You can control each joint of OpenMANIPULATOR-P and check states of OpenMANIPULATOR-P through messages by utilizing an exclusive controller program.

Before launching the controller, please check open_manipulator_p_controller launch file in open_manipulator_p_controller package.

<launch>
 <arg name="use_robot_name"         default="open_manipulator_p"/>

 <arg name="dynamixel_usb_port"     default="/dev/ttyUSB0"/>
 <arg name="dynamixel_baud_rate"    default="1000000"/>

 <arg name="control_period"         default="0.010"/>

 <arg name="use_platform"           default="true"/>

 <arg name="use_moveit"             default="false"/>
 <arg name="planning_group_name"    default="arm"/>
 <arg name="moveit_sample_duration" default="0.050"/>

 <group if="$(arg use_moveit)">
   <include file="$(find open_manipulator_p_controller)/launch/open_manipulator_p_moveit.launch">
     <arg name="robot_name"      value="$(arg use_robot_name)"/>
     <arg name="sample_duration" value="$(arg moveit_sample_duration)"/>
   </include>
 </group>

 <node name="$(arg use_robot_name)" pkg="open_manipulator_p_controller" type="open_manipulator_p_controller" output="screen" args="$(arg dynamixel_usb_port) $(arg dynamixel_baud_rate)">
     <param name="using_platform"       value="$(arg use_platform)"/>
     <param name="using_moveit"         value="$(arg use_moveit)"/>
     <param name="planning_group_name"  value="$(arg planning_group_name)"/>
     <param name="control_period"       value="$(arg control_period)"/>
     <param name="moveit_sample_duration"  value="$(arg moveit_sample_duration)"/>
 </node>

</launch>

Parameter Description

The following patameters are used to set the controls.

use_robot_name

  • Specifies the name of manipulator (namespace of ROS messages)

dynamixel_usb_port

  • Specifies a USB port. The @ symbol appended at the end of the port name indicates a port number on DYNAMIXEL.
    • Port of U2D2: /dev/ttyUSB@
    • Port of OpenCR: /dev/ttyACM@

dynamixel_baud_rate

  • Specifies baud rate of DYNAMIXEL. The default baud rate is 1000000.

control_period

  • Specifies a communication period (control loop time) between DYNAMIXEL and PC.

use_platform

  • Sets to true/false to use Simulation feature.
    • true for using an actual robot.
    • false for using an virtual robot in Gazebo (3D robotics simulator).

use_moveit, planning_group_name and moveit_sample_duration

  • Load move_group package.
  • More information on these parmeters is available at MoveIt!.

Launch Controller​

After setting those parameters, launch OpenMANIPULATOR-P controller to start [ROS] Operation.

First, open a terminal then run roscore along with following command.

$ roscore

Next, open a new Terminal and launch the controller package along with following command.

$ roslaunch open_manipulator_p_controller open_manipulator_p_controller.launch
warning

WARNING: It is recommended to place OpenMANIPULATOR-P at the following pose and start the controller so that each component of OpenMANIPULATOR-P does not conflict.

Follwing message will be shown in a terminal after the process is done successfully.

tip

TIP:

  • If you can't load DYNAMIXEL, please check your DYNAMIXEL settings by using the following command from DYNAMIXEL Workbench packages.
    rosrun dynamixel_workbench_controllers find_dynamixel /dev/ttyUSB0
    if DYNAMIXEL aren't recoginized, please check firmware with ROBOTIS software (R+ Manager 2.0 or DYNAMIXEL Wizard 2.0)

  • If you would like to change DYNAMIXEL ID, please check open_manipulator_p.cpp in the open_manipulator_p_lib folder. The default ID is 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 and 6 for joints.

info

NOTE: OpenMANIPULATOR-P controller is compatible with Protocol 2.0. Protocol 1.0 doesn't support SyncRead instructions that access to multiple DYNAMIXEL's simultaneously. Protocol 2.0 supports MX 2.0, X, Pro, Pro + series, but it does not support AX, RX and EX.

info

NOTE:

  • The test is done on ROS Kinetic Kame installed in Ubuntu 16.04.
  • The test is done on ROS Melodic Moreniainstalled in Ubuntu 18.04.
  • Make sure ROS dependencies are installed before performing these instructions - Install ROS Packages

Load OpenMANIPULATOR-P on RViz.

$ roslaunch open_manipulator_p_description open_manipulator_p_rviz.launch
info

NOTE:

  • If you launched the OpenMANIPULATOR-P controller before launching the open_manipulator_p_controller file, the robot model on RViz would be synchronized with the actual robot.
  • If users would like to check only model of OpenMANIPULATOR-P without OpenMANIPULATOR-P, the user can launch the RViz without the OpenMANIPULATOR-P controller.
    The user can change each joint by GUI, if the user launch only RViz by executing the following command : $ roslaunch open_manipulator_p_description open_manipulator_p_rviz.launch use_gui:=true

OpenMANIPULATOR-P controller provides topic and service messages to control manipulator and check the states of manipulator.

Topic​

Topic Monitor​

In order to check the topics of OpenMANIPULATOR-P controller, you can use rqt provided by ROS. Rqt is a Qt-based framework for GUI development for ROS. Rqt allows users to easily see topic status by displaying all topics on a topic list. You can see topic name, type, bandwidth, Hz and value on rqt.

Run rqt.

$ rqt

tip

TIP: If rqt is not displayed, select the plugin -> Topic Monitor -> OpenMANIPULATOR-P.

Topics without a check mark will not be monitored. To monitor topics, click the checkboxes next.

If you would like to see more details about topic message, click the ▶ button next to each checkbox.

Published Topic List​

Published Topic List : A list of topics that the open_manipulator_p_controller publishes.

  • /open_manipulator/states
  • /open_manipulator/joint_states
  • /open_manipulator/gripper/kinematics_pose
  • /open_manipulator/*joint_name*_position/command
  • /open_manipulator/rviz/moveit/update_start_state
info

NOTE: These topics are messages for checking the status of the robot regardless of the robot's motion.

/open_manipulator/joint_states(sensor_msgs/JointState) is a message indicating the states of joints of OpenMANIPULATOR-P. "name" indicates joint component names. "effort" shows currents of the joint DYNAMIXEL. "position" and "velocity" indicates angles and angular velocities of joints.

/open_manipulator/gripper/kinematics_pose(open_manipulator_msgs/KinematicsPose) is a message indicating pose (position and orientation) in task space. "position" indicates the x, y and z values of the center of the end-effector (tool). "Orientation" indicates the direction of the end-effector (tool) as quaternion.

/open_manipulator/states(open_manipulator_msgs/OpenManipulatorState) is a message indicating the status of OpenMANIPULATOR-P. "open_manipulator_actuator_state" indicates whether actuators (DYNAMIXEL) are enabled ("ACTUATOR_ENABLE") or disabled ("ACTUATOR_DISABLE"). "open_manipulator_moving_state" indicates whether OpenMANIPULATOR-P is moving along the trajectory ("IS_MOVING") or stopped ("STOPPED").

/open_manipulator/*joint_name*_position/command(std_msgs/Float64) are the messages to publish goal position of each joint to gazebo simulation node. *joint_name* shows the name of each joint. The messages will only be published if you run the controller package with the use_platform parameter set to false.

/rviz/moveit/update_start_state(std_msgs/Empty) is a message to update start state of moveit! trajectory. This message will only be published if you run the controller package with the use_moveit parameter set to true.

Subscribed Topic List​

Subscribed Topic List: A list of topics that the open_manipulator_p_controller subscribes.

  • /open_manipulator/option
  • /open_manipulator/move_group/display_planned_path
  • /open_manipulator/move_group/goal
  • /open_manipulator/execute_trajectory/goal
info

NOTE: These topics are messages for checking the status of the robot regardless of the robot's motion.

/open_manipulator/option(std_msgs/String) is used to set OpenMANIPULATOR-P options. "print_open_manipulator_setting" : is to request the open_manipulator_p_controller to display "Manipulator Description".

/open_manipulator/option(moveit_msgs/DisplayTrajectory) is used to subscribe a planned joint trajectory published from moveit!

/move_group/goal(moveit_msgs/MoveGroupActionGoal) is used to subscribe a planning option data published from moveit!

/move_group/execute_trajectory/goal(moveit_msgs/ExecuteTrajectoryActionGoal) is used to subscribe states of trajectory execution published from moveit!

In addition, you can monitor topics through rqt whenever you have a topic added in your controller.
