cmd_rate

float, 10.0

Rate for sending the commands to the robot in closed loop (Hz)

closed_loop_span

int, 3

Max number of commands to send in a closed loop execution

smooth_commands

bool, False

Filter (smooth) incoming velocity commands to limit the acceleration

cmd_tolerance

float, 0.1

Tolerance value when checking for reaching the command in closed loop

property run_type: kompass.config.ComponentRunType#

Component run type: Timed, ActionServer or Event

Returns:

Timed, ActionServer or Server

Return type:

str

init_flags()#

Setup node flags to track operations flow

init_variables()#

Overwrites the init variables method called at Node init

attach_callbacks()#

execute_cmd_open_loop(cmd: geometry_msgs.msg.Twist, max_time: float)#

Execute a control command in open loop

Parameters:
  • cmd (Twist) – Velocity Twist message

  • max_time (float) – Maximum time for the open loop execution (s)

execute_cmd_closed_loop(cmd: geometry_msgs.msg.Twist, max_time: float)#

Execute a control command in closed loop

Parameters:
  • cmd (Twist) – Velocity Twist message

  • max_time (float) – Maximum time for the closed loop execution (s)

move_forward(max_distance: float) bool#

Moves the robot forward if the forward direction is clear of obstacles

Parameters:

max_distance (float) – Maximum distance (m)

Returns:

If the movement action is performed

Return type:

bool

move_backward(max_distance: float) bool#

Moves the robot backwards if the backward direction is clear of obstacles

Parameters:

max_distance (float) – Maximum distance (m)

Returns:

If the movement action is performed

Return type:

bool

rotate_in_place(max_rotation: float, safety_margin: Optional[float] = None) bool#

Rotates the robot in place if a safety margin around the robot is clear

Parameters:

safety_margin (Optional[float], optional) – Margin clear of obstacles to perform rotation, if None defaults to 5% of the robot_radius

Returns:

If the movement action is performed

Return type:

bool

move_to_unblock(max_distance_forward: Optional[float] = None, max_distance_backwards: Optional[float] = None, max_rotation: float = np.pi / 4, rotation_safety_margin: Optional[float] = None) bool#

Moves the robot forward/backward or rotate in place to get out of blocking spots

Parameters:
  • max_distance_forward (Optional[float], optional) – Maximum distance to move forward (meters), if None defaults to 2 * robot_radius

  • max_distance_backwards (Optional[float], optional) – Maximum distance to move backwards (meters), if None defaults to 2 * robot_radius

  • max_rotation (float, optional) – Maximum rotation angle (radians), defaults to np.pi/4

  • rotation_safety_margin (Optional[float], optional) – Safety margin to perform rotation in place (meters), if None defaults to 5% of robot_radius

Returns:

If one of the movement actions is performed

Return type:

bool
