Joystick interface

A joystick interface for manual control and reference sending of the AUV. Subscribes to Xbox controller inputs and publishes wrench commands (manual mode) or pose references (reference/guidance mode) depending on the active operation mode.

Launching

ros2 launch joystick_interface_auv joystick_interface_auv.launch.py

Launch arguments

Argument Default Description
drone nautilus Drone model — loads the matching config from auv_setup/config/robots/<drone>.yaml
namespace <drone> ROS namespace. Defaults to the drone name if left empty
orientation_mode euler Reference orientation representation: euler (publishes ReferenceFilter with RPY angles) or quat (publishes ReferenceFilterQuat with quaternion)

The orientation_mode must match the reference filter used by the active DP controller. Use euler with the adaptive backstepping controller (reference_filter_dp) and quat with the PID controller (reference_filter_dp_quat).

Example — launch with quaternion mode for use with the PID controller:

ros2 launch joystick_interface_auv joystick_interface_auv.launch.py orientation_mode:=quat

Controller button mapping

Button Action
A Manual mode (direct wrench from joystick axes)
B Toggle software killswitch
X Autonomous mode
Y Reference mode (joystick incrementally updates the pose reference sent to the DP controller)

In reference mode, the left stick controls surge/sway, triggers control heave, the right stick controls pitch/yaw, and shoulder buttons control roll. Movement is expressed in the body frame and rotated into the world frame before being added to the desired pose.

Config

Gains for both manual wrench output and reference increments are set in config/param_joystick_interface_auv.yaml:

  • joystick_*_gain — scales raw axis/button input to force/torque in manual mode
  • guidance_*_gain — scales input to position/orientation increments in reference mode
  • debounce_duration — minimum seconds between button state changes (prevents double-triggers)
