procedure

Install Ubuntu-16.04

Download & unzip

Reference: Using Ubuntu 14.04 with Raspberry Pi 2 Reference: Burn Raspberry Pi OS image on Mac OS X-@ledsun blog

Download the Ubuntu-16.04 image (ubuntu-16.04-preinstalled-server-armhf + raspi3.img.xz) from below ARM/RaspberryPi - Ubuntu Wiki

Unzip below.

$ xz -dv ubuntu-16.04-preinstalled-server-armhf+raspi3.img.xz

SD card identification and burning

Identify the SD card with diskutil list etc. This time / dev / disk2

Burn to SD card.

$ diskutil unmountDisk /dev/disk2
$ sudo dd if=ubuntu-16.04-preinstalled-server-armhf+raspi3.img of=/dev/rdisk2 bs=1m

Connect with SSH, initial setting

Wireless LAN settings

The IP address of RPi for Roomba is assumed to be fixed at 192.168.0.1.

$ sudo apt-get install -y wpasupplicant wireless-tools linunx-firmware
$ sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces.d/wlan.cfg
$ sudo vi /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
$ sudo vi /etc/default/networking
$ sudo ifup wlan0

text:/etc/network/interfaces.d/wlan.cfg

auto wlan0
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
    address 192.168.0.1
    netmask 255.255.255.0  #In your own environment
    gateway 192.168.0.254  #Set together
    wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

	group=CCMP TKIP
	ssid="your_ssid"

}

/etc/default/networking

CONFIGURTE_INTERFACES=no

** Reference ** The passphrase generation is as follows

$ sudo sh -c "wpa_passphrase your_ssid > /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf"
# reading passphrase from stdin
pass_phrase
network={
	ssid="your_ssid"
	#psk="pass_phrase"
	psk=****************
}

ROS installation

Reference: Install ROS kinetic on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS of Raspberry Pi3 | GarretCafe

It is almost the same as Try running ROS sample easily on a virtual machine.

Time setting

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install -y chrony ntpdate
$ sudo ntpdate ntp.nict.jp

Added ROS repository and public key

$ sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros-latest.list'
$ wget http://packages.ros.org/ros.key -O - | sudo apt-key add -

ROS installation

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install -y ros-kinetic-ros-base # No GUI tools
$ sudo rosdep init
$ rosdep update
$ echo "source /opt/ros/kinetic/setup.bash" >> ~/.bashrc
$ source ~/.bashrc
$ sudo apt-get install -y python-rosinstall

Workspace settings

$ source /opt/ros/kinetic/setup.bash
$ mkdir -p ~/catkin_ws/src
$ cd ~/catkin_ws/src
$ catkin_init_workspace
$ cd ~/catkin_ws/
$ catkin_make
$ source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash

ROS preferences

$ vi ~/.bashrc
$ source ~/.bashrc

.bashrc

source /opt/ros/kinetic/setup.bash
source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash

export ROS_IP=192.168.0.1
export ROS_MASTER_URI=http://${ROS_IP}:11311
export DISPLAY=:0

alias cw='cd ~/catkin_ws'
alias cs='cd ~/catkin_ws/src'
alias cm='cd ~/catkin_ws && catkin_make'

Installation of roomba_500_series

Reference: Run Roomba with ROS (catkin compatible) --cryborg Robotics blog Reference: Catkin Super Introduction (Part 3) -Use the rosbuild package: Bouquet for Hanaoka

Repository: https://github.com/NetBUG/roomba_500_series

Once, catkin_make or catkin_make install fails, but if you run it several times, it will eventually succeed.

$ cd ~/catkin_ws/src
$ git clone https://github.com/NetBUG/cereal_port
$ git clone https://github.com/NetBUG/roomba_500_series
$ rosdep install cerial_port
$ rosdep install roomba_500_series
$ cd ~/catkin_ws
$ catkin_make
$ catkin_make install

Creating a package

Package creation

$ cd ~/catkin_ws/src
$ catkin_create_pkg roomba rospy std_msgs

Creating roslaunch files and operating programs

roscore starts without permission even if it is not described.

$ roscd roomba
$ mkdir launch
$ mkdir scripts
$ vi launch/roomba.launch
$ vi scripts/sample.py

roomba.launch

<launch>
	<node pkg="roomba_500_series" name="roomba560_node" type="roomba560_node" />
</launch>

sample.py

#!/usr/bin/env python

import rospy
from geometry_msgs.msg import Twist

rospy.init_node("sample")

pub = rospy.Publisher("cmd_vel", Twist, queue_size=10)

while not rospy.is_shutdown():
    vel  = Twist()

    direction = raw_input("f: forward, b: backward, l: left, r: right, s: stop,  q: quit > ")

    if "f" in direction:
        vel.linear.x = +0.1

    if "b" in direction:
        vel.linear.x = -0.1

    if "l" in direction:
        vel.angular.z = +1.0

    if "r" in direction:
        vel.angular.z = -1.0

    if "s" in direction:
        vel.linear.x = 0.0
        vel.angular.z = 0.0

    if "q" in direction:
        break

    print vel

    pub.publish(vel)

Give execute permission

$ roscd roomba_ctl/scripts
$ chmod 755 sample.py

catkin_make

$ cd ~/catkin_ws
$ catkin_make
$ source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash

Try to move

roslaunch

$ roslaunch roomba roomba.launch

Direct transmission of rostopic

$ export ROS_IP=<Your IP address> #Check with ifconfig
$ rostopic pub -1 cmd_vel geometry_msgs/Twist "[0, 0, 0]" "[0, 0, 0.1]" && rostopic pub -1 cmd_vel geometry_msgs/Twist "[0, 0, 0]" "[0, 0, 0]"

Or below (operate from sample.py)

$ export ROS_IP=<Your IP address> #Check with ifconfig
$ roscd roomba
$ ./sample.py
