mocap_nokov
ROS nodes for working with the Nokov motion capture system
Usage
source /opt/ros/$ROS_DISTRO/setup.bash
cd ~/catkin_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/NOKOV-MOCAP/mocap_nokov.git
cd ~/catkin_ws
rosdep install --from-paths src -y --ignore-src
catkin_make
source /devel/setup.bash
nokov@ubuntu:~/catkin_ws/src/mocap_nokov/config$ gedit mocap.yaml
rigid_bodies:
'1':
pose: Robot_1/pose
pose2d: Robot_1/ground_pose
odom: Robot_1/Odom
tf: tf
child_frame_id: Robot_1/base_link
parent_frame_id: world
'2':
pose: Robot_2/pose
pose2d: Robot_2/ground_pose
odom: Robot_2/Odom
tf: tf
child_frame_id: Robot_2/base_link
parent_frame_id: world
nokov_config:
server_address: "10.1.1.198"
This is a ROS parameter configuration file for mocap_nokov. Here is a description of each parameter:
-
rigid_bodies: Add rigid body to track. -
1:: Asset number of rigid body. -
server_address: indicates the IP address of the MOCAP server. In this example, the server’s IP address is’ 10.1.1.198 ‘.
Launch Default Configuration from Command Line
Run the following command,
roslaunch mocap_nokov mocap.launch
```Then with rostopic list, you should be able to see the following topics
/mocap_node/<tracker_name>/ground_pose
/mocap_node/<tracker_name>/pose
/mocap_node/<tracker_name>/Odom
where <tracker_name> is usually the name of your tracked objects.
