[amcl_demo] robot_radius infestation

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Seems the costmaps and inflation layers both have robot_radius dynamically reconfigurable parameters. The costmap parameter is 0.18 and inflation layer parameter is 0.46.

  • What is the meaning for each parameter?
  • 0.46 is a wierd value for this.

0.46 is, I believe, the default from the PR2. Most of the navigation stack defaults are from the PR2.

Thanks fergs.

Looks like it's set by default by the inflation plugin.

Odd thing though, it doesn't seem to have any effect. Local obstacles in rviz have a collision zone of 0.18 still, not 0.46 and dynamically reconfiguring it also doesn't seem to have any effect.
