Hey guys,
I have manged to send the velocities from hector exploration controller to start mapping the room. However, i have encountered some issues with it. I attach two links below, first is what kind of movement i experience, and second is the one i am trying to aim to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0CHcsnQsaM&feature=youtu.be <--- our robot, trying to map the room while using exploration node from hector_navigation package. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0CHcsnQsaM&feature=youtu.be <--- video from ros wiki, where the movement of the robot is much more smoother compared to mine. I do understand that my robot uses skidsteering compared to the one that was in robocup where all wheels can turn. However, i don't think it is only because of that, so i was maybe thinking it might be with some parameters i have. Worth noting, robot doesnt have odometry, i only rely on laser scan data. Robot is controlled by arduino. Additional question, when it explores, even though the area is mapped, when looking at rviz, robot keeps running and running. Do i need to stop the movement myself or it does it until completely explores (in my case it seemed it did the same route 2 times at least)? Thanks in advance for the answer.
