27 July 2022 - Workshop at IEEE CCTA 2022
We will present ChoiRbot at the workshop “Distributed Cooperative Robotics: Numerical Methods and ROS 2 Software Tools”, which will be held at the 2022 IEEE Conference on Control Technology and Applications on August 22. The content can be found here and here If you are interested in the workshop, you need to register at this link.
21 May 2022 - Docker Container
You can now run ChoiRbot in a Docker container! Check the installation procedure here. Thank you srikrishna3118 and shubham1337 for your pull request!
14 April 2022 - Quadrotor Simulation and Control
We developed a simulator and flatness based controllers for quadrotors! You can try the new functionalities by downloading the dev_quadrotor branch in the src directory of your workspace:
git clone -b dev_quadrotor https://github.com/OPT4SMART/ChoiRbot.git .
We also included a bearing formation control example with four quadrotors. Check it out by running
ros2 launch choirbot_examples quadrotorbearingformationcontrol.launch.py
We are working to include a more realistic visualization and support to more recent ROS2 distros. More content coming soon!
6 April 2022 - Extension to second order dynamical systems
You can now simulate second order dynamical systems in ChoiRbot! We also included a script to simulate double integrator systems. More content coming soon! You can try the new functionalities by downloading the dev_quadrotor branch in the src directory of your workspace:
git clone -b dev_quadrotor https://github.com/OPT4SMART/ChoiRbot.git .
