To create waypoints to the loomo, you first have to ssh into the Jetson and start roscore.
Optional: You can use screen -mdS roscore_auto roscore to run roscore in the background.
After that you need to use the rosrun loomo_base loomo_odom.py command to initialize the starting position of the robot.
From this point you can create your waypoints by simply using the waypoint_creator.py in your workspace.
In rviz you need to use the 2D Nav Goal and mark the points you want the robot to go.
Finally to start the process you just need to start waypoint_loomo.py and the robot will go to the marked points.
- Every time you turn on the Jetson, you first have to synchronize its time with the robot and the computer you are using, otherwise the tf messages won't work on
rviz. - If the loomo_odom.py stops working you can use the previously added position by simply using
rosrun loomo_base loomo_odom.py --prevcommand.
