rosbot_hardware_interfaces

The package uses ros2_control to communicate with the ROSbot's 2R, ROSbot's 2 PRO and ROSbot's XL hardware. ROSbots contain micro-ros firmware which provides the encoders and the imu measurements and the motors speed commander.

Usage

1. Add this repository to ros2 workspace

cd src/
git clone https://github.com/husarion/rosbot_hardware_interfaces

2. Add to the Rosbot description following lines:

<xacro:include filename="$(find rosbot_hardware_interfaces)/urdf/ros2_control.urdf.xacro" />
<xacro:ros2_control_system/>

3. Configure and launch the controller with the example usage.
