Kria K260 depth demo

This demo presents an appication of AMD Kria K260 to computations of stereo-vision based depth. It also showcases a Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation with Open 3D Engine (O3DE) and the use of Robot Operating System (ROS) interfaces.

The key computation is offloaded to FPGA (Field-programmable gate array) for efficiency and determinism.

In this simple project number of technologies are utilized:

AMD Kria 260, a board which is well-suited for robotics.
AMD Vitis ™️, a platform to develop solutions for FPGA.
Kria Robotics stack, a ROS 2 set of tools, nodes, and libraries to deploy hardware-accelerated solutions to Kria SOMs.

Prerequisites

Host machine (X86) with Ubuntu 22.04 and plenty of free space (~300 Gb), primarily for Vitis. This machine will also run the HIL simulation.
KR260 board with Ubuntu 22.04, which you set up following this guide.
ROS 2 Humble installed on KR260 and x86.

Install Vitis (Vivado) on the host machine

Download Vivado 2022.1, preferably Xilinx_Unified_2022.1. The file is quite large, so do not forget to check MD5 checksum before installation. Install Vitis at default location /tools/Xilinx.

Troubleshooting

If you experience freezing, follow the support recommendation and install these:

sudo apt-get install libtinfo5 libncurses5

Install ROS 2 Humble on KRIA

Setup Locale:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install locales
sudo locale-gen en_US en_US.UTF-8
sudo update-locale LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8

Add Sources & Repo Key:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository universe
sudo apt update && sudo apt install curl
curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ros/rosdistro/master/ros.key | sudo apt-key add -

Add ROS 2 Repository:

sudo sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture)] http://packages.ros.org/ros2/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros2.list'

Install ROS 2 Humble (full-desktop, 1.7 GB download):**

sudo apt update
sudo apt install ros-humble-desktop

Install additional tools and rmw-cyclonedds-cpp for ROS:

sudo apt install python3-colcon-common-extensions python3-argcomplete ros-humble-rmw-cyclonedds-cpp

Build workspace on KRIA

Build workspace on X86

Enter the 'krs_ws' workspace. Setup environment variable by adding the following line to your ~.bashrc:

export KRS_WS=/home/$USER/kria_depth_demo/krs_ws/

Install prerequisites (according to Install KRS)

sudo apt-get install ros-humble-rmw-cyclonedds-cpp ros-humble-cyclonedds*

sudo apt-get install qemu-user-static
sudo apt-get install ros-humble-gazebo-ros ros-humble-gazebo-plugins ros-humble-gazebo-msgs

Install repositories that are part of Kria Robotic Stack.

Note! Before proceed with cross-compilation, make sure that RMW_IMPLEMENTATION is not set #KRS/84:

unset RMW_IMPLEMENTATION

cd $KRS_WS
vcs import src --recursive < krs_humble.repos

Source Vitis and ROS 2 and build tools for x86. Note that the building needs superuser access.

cd $KRS_WS
unset RMW_IMPLEMENTATION
source /tools/Xilinx/Vitis/2022.1/settings64.sh  # source Xilinx tools
source /opt/ros/humble/setup.bash  # Sources system ROS 2 installation.
export PATH="/usr/bin":$PATH  # FIXME: adjust path for CMake 3.5+
sudo ls -l # Hack to give sudo access to shell, else build may hang.
colcon build --merge-install --packages-select acceleration_firmware_kr260 vitis_common colcon-hardware-acceleration ros2acceleration ros2_kria colcon-hardware-acceleration ament_vitis ament_acceleration

Prepare system for cross compilation

sudo ln -s $KRS_WS/install/../acceleration/firmware/kr260/sysroots/aarch64-xilinx-linux/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libpython3.10.so.1.0 /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libpython3.10.so -f

Build accelerated node

With colcon select the build target (kr260):

cd $KRS_WS
unset RMW_IMPLEMENTATION
source /tools/Xilinx/Vitis/2022.1/settings64.sh  # source Xilinx tools
source /opt/ros/humble/setup.bash  # Sources system ROS 2 installation.
source ./install/setup.bash  # Source KRS
export PATH="/usr/bin":$PATH
colcon acceleration select kr260

Build only the depth node (takes about half an hour on Ryzen 7 9700x):

cd $KRS_WS
unset RMW_IMPLEMENTATION
source /tools/Xilinx/Vitis/2022.1/settings64.sh  # source Xilinx tools
source /opt/ros/humble/setup.bash  # Sources system ROS 2 installation.
source ./install/setup.bash  # Source KRS
export PATH="/usr/bin":$PATH
rm -r build-kr260-ubuntu/stereolbm_accel/
colcon build --executor sequential --event-handlers console_direct+ --build-base=build-kr260-ubuntu --install-base=install-kr260-ubuntu --merge-install --mixin kr260 --cmake-args -DNOKERNELS=false --packages-select stereolbm_accel

Next, you need to copy to the board (assuming that Kria is configured as host in your .ssh/config, and the user name is 'ubuntu'):

cd $KRS_WS
scp -r install-kr260-ubuntu/lib/stereolbm_accel  ubuntu@kria:/home/ubuntu/

Next on the board (after ssh kria):

sudo cp -r /home/$USER/stereolbm_accel /usr/lib/firmware/xilinx
sudo xmutil listapps #Queries on target FW resource manager daemon of pre-built app bitstreams available on the platform and provides summary to CLI.
sudo xmutil unloadapp #Removes application bitstream. (Takes slot number, default 0)
sudo xmutil loadapp stereolbm_accel #Loads requested application configuration bitstream to programmable logic if the device is available.

Next, source KRS and run accelerated node:

source /home/$USER/krs_ws/install/setup.bash
cd /home/$USER/stereolbm_accel
./stereolbm_accel_tb

DDS tunning

We have a peer-to-peer connection with cyclone-dds.

Please create a file with the DDS configuration on the x86 and Kria board. This configuration assumes that peer addresses are:

192.168.99.1
192.168.99.2 Do not forget to adjust the interface name, substitute 'enp46s0' for your network interface.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

      		<MaxAutoParticipantIndex>1000</MaxAutoParticipantIndex>
    	</Discovery>
    </Domain>
</CycloneDDS>

Now, add reference to created file (e.g. ~/kria_cyclone.xml) in ~/.bashrc:

export CYCLONEDDS_URI=file:///home/$USER/kria_cyclone.xml

export RMW_IMPLEMENTATION=rmw_cyclonedds_cpp
#export RMW_IMPLEMENTATION=rmw_fastrtps_cpp

export ROS_DOMAIN_ID=34

Finally, set the network stack on x86 and Kria:

sudo vim /etc/sysctl.d/10-cyclone-max.conf

and insert:

net.ipv4.ipfrag_time=3
net.ipv4.ipfrag_high_thresh=134217728
net.core.rmem_max=2147483647

Reboot both x86 and Kria.

Download simulator

The simulator is available under this repository ROSCon2023Demo.

Download prebuilt package for ROS 2 humble

Install prerequisites:

sudo apt install ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-ackermann-msgs ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-control-toolbox ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-nav-msgs ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-gazebo-msgs ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-vision-msgs ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-ur-msgs ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-moveit-servo ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-moveit-visual-tools ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-moveit ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-pilz-industrial-motion-planner ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-controller-manager ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-ur-client-library ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-nav2-common ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-navigation2 python3-rosdep2 python3-colcon-common-extensions

Initialize rosdep

rosdep update

Create SIM_PACKAGE environment variable (adjust accordingly to the chosen directory)

export SIM_PACKAGE=~/rosconpkg

After downloading the package and unzipping it under ${SIM_PACKAGE} on X86 you need to build Simulator's ROS 2 workspace:

cd ${SIM_PACKAGE}/ros2_ws
rosdep install --ignore-src --from-paths src/Universal_Robots_ROS2_Driver -y
colcon build --symlink-install

Running HIL simulation

On Kria:

source /home/${USER}/krs_ws/install/setup.bash
cd /home/${USER}/stereolbm_accel
./stereolbm_accel_tb

Note: After each power cycle of the KRIA make sure to load the FPGA Bitstream before running the above by:

sudo xmutil unloadapp
sudo xmutil loadapp stereolbm_accel

On x86:

source ${SIM_PACKAGE}/ros2_ws/install/setup.bash
${SIM_PACKAGE}/ROSCon2023DemoGamePackage/ROSCon2023Demo.GameLauncher -r_fullscreen=false -bg_ConnectToAssetProcessor=0 -r_width=960 -r_height=960 +LoadLevel levels/demostereo/demostereo.spawnable +r_displayInfo 0
