Detailed Description

ROS driver for the ART steering servo controller.

This driver provides an interface to the steering servo for the ART robot vehicle.

See also:

<art/steering.h> for steering angle conversions and constants.

Publishes

• steering/state [art_msgs::SteeringState]

Subscribes:

• ioadr/state [art_msgs::IOadrState]

• if omitted, the steering position is assumed to start at 0.0 (centered) and all requested steering positions are assumed to be reached accurately.

• steering/cmd [art_msgs::SteeringCommand]

Sets the desired steering angle (in degrees). Position max_steer_degrees is fully left, 0.0 is centered, -max_steer_degrees is fully right. There are both absolute and relative versions of this command.

Parameters:

• ~/port (string)
  • serial port name for steering controller (usually "/dev/steering")
  • use "/dev/null" when simulating the device
  • default: "/dev/steering" (actual hardware port)

• ~/diagnostic (bool)
  • if true, publish extra diagnostic information not needed for normal operation
  • default: false

• ~/calibration_period (integer)
  • number of cycles to spend calibrating starting wheel position
  • default: 19
