Hi, I am trying to set up the untethered operation with the ROS remote master. However, I am having a few issues:
-
When trying to run
roslaunch stretch_core stretch_driver.launch
the robot’s Lidar does not begin to spin as the guide says it should. I’ve included the terminal output at the end of the post. -
Since that Lidar did not seem to work, I tried
roslaunch stretch_navigation mapping.launch
which I have successfully run directly from the robot and works fine. However, with the remote master, when I open rviz, there are no errors but the visualization does not seem to load as I would expect:
I was wondering if anyone had ideas on how to solve this. Thanks!
