CeRVaNTeS' Teleoperation with xbox360 wireless controller (xbox360 controller+joy)

Teleoperation of CeRVaNTeS
We need a teleoperation system in order to take the control of the robot to make specific tasks. Currently we use the ssh connection between the robot PC and our PC, using the keyboard. This method use a wifi network that can fail or not available. For this reason the best option is to use a device plugged in to the PC robot with its own network. The well-chosen device is the xbox360 wireless controller of microsoft.
xbox360 controller
Description of buttons and axes
This controller has 6 axes and 14 buttons that are distributed like is shown below:
- Left pad: 2 axes and 1 button.
- Right pad: 2 axes and 1 button.
- Left trigger: 1 axe.
- Right trigger: 1 axe.
- Cross: 4 buttons.
- Left side buttons: 4 buttons.
- Left button: 1 button.
- Right button: 1 button.
- "Back" button: 1 button.
- "Start" button: 1 button.
The function assigned to the buttons and axes of the xbox360 controller for teleoperation of CeRVaNTeS is shown in the next picture:
Funcionalidad xbox360 controller for CeRVaNTeS.
Program
The program assigns the function to the buttons and axes. The program subscribes to the topic "joy" where is published the state of the buttons and axes and publishes the topics "Base_Control" and "Group_Motor_Control" for the control of the base and the arm. We have to execute the next command in a terminal in order to create a new package named "cervantes_teleop" within our catkin workspace:
roscreate-pkg myrabot_teleop brazo_fer geometry_msgs sensor_msgs std_msgs ros_cppWe will create a new file named "teleop_xbox360.cpp" within the folder "src" of the created package with the content that is shown below:
