This needs some testing on the gimbal setup. It should be ready for merge afterward. |
|
you added static magic numbers for the transform for a specific gremsy gimbal, which i dont know. |
|
The given values seem accurate to the centimeter, is this really the case for your particular gimbal? |
|
This was more or less an estimation using simple physical measurements. Maybe I add a small example Gremsy T3V3 urdf in this PR. But not today. |
|
On the other hand, we could simply use a robot state publisher for this use case. I thought it was overdone at first but now it seems like the right way. We only need to add a joint message publisher inside this node and the rest is done by ROS using the urdf. The robot_state_publisher simply matches the names provided by the joint state message to the joint names in the urdf and adds the dynamic rotations to the specified static transforms. |
|
If it is just too much work, maybe you also point out in the readme.md that the developer needs to change the values for his purpose. |
|
I removed the static translational transforms from the code and they can be added in an urdf if needed. |
This PR adds the ability to publish multiple ROS TF transforms.
It closes issue #1
