Dependencies

This package depends on

Installation procedure

It is assumed that ROS is installed.

Setup catkin workspace.

$ mkdir -p ~/ros/ws_ccc/src
$ cd ~/ros/ws_ccc
$ wstool init src
$ wstool set -t src isri-aist/QpSolverCollection git@github.com:isri-aist/QpSolverCollection.git --git -y
$ wstool set -t src isri-aist/NMPC git@github.com:isri-aist/NMPC.git --git -y
$ wstool set -t src isri-aist/CentroidalControlCollection git@github.com:isri-aist/CentroidalControlCollection.git --git -y
$ wstool update -t src

Install dependent packages.

$ source /opt/ros/${ROS_DISTRO}/setup.bash
$ rosdep install -y -r --from-paths src --ignore-src

Build a package.

$ catkin build centroidal_control_collection -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo --catkin-make-args all tests

Examples

Make sure that it is built with --catkin-make-args tests option.

Methods based on bipedal dynamics

The CoM and ZMP trajectories are planned according to the ZMP reference trajectory and the ZMP region boundaries as inputs, which are determined from a given footstep sequence (i.e., the position and timing of the foot landings). The CoM velocity is jumped by emulating a disturbance during motion.

Plotting all methods

$ roscd centroidal_control_collection
$ catkin bt --no-deps --catkin-make-args run_tests
$ rosrun centroidal_control_collection plotTestZmpBasedMethodResults.py --method All --plot-comp-time

You will get a plot like this one that shows all the methods in one sheet.

Methods based on centroidal dynamics

Centroidal trajectories (i.e., CoM and linear/angular momentum trajectories) are planned from the contact sequence.
