📋About

ROS Diagnostics based monitoring system for Ohmni telepresence robot. It features diagnostics for the following sensors:

• Navigation camera
• Camera
• Scan sensor
• IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit)
• Joint States (Left/ Right wheels, caster, caster wheel, neck)
• Odometry

👩‍💻Installation and Usage

With bash script:

For easy compilation and running, a bash script is provided:

• Build with:

  ./compiler.sh --compile
  
• Clean build with:

  ./compiler.sh --cclean
  
• Run gazebo simulation, diagnostic aggregator, diagnostic updater and the rqt monitor with:

  ./compiler.sh --launch
  
  Otherwise you can append this option to the previous build commands (es ./compiler.sh --cclean --launch).
• Add Rqt Gui option to display multiple Rqt plugins into a single window:

  ./compiler.sh --cclean --launch --rqtgui
  ./compiler.sh --launch --rqtgui
  

Without script:

If you're having trubles with the script, you can start the simulation manually:

1. Build with

   cd ros_ws
   catkin_make
   
2. Run gazebo simulation

   source devel/setup.bash
   roslaunch gazebo_environment empty.launch
   
3. Run diagnostic updater in a new console tab/window

   source devel/setup.bash
   roslaunch diagnostic_updater updaters_launcher.launch 
   
4. Run diagnostic aggregator in a new console tab/window

   source devel/setup.bash
   roslaunch diagnostic_aggregator aggregator_launcher.launch
   
5. Run the monitor with

   rosrun rqt_robot_monitor rqt_robot_monitor
