Matlab and ROS integration
显示 更早的评论
I have created matlab code where robot does exploration, the map is binary occupancy map (20x20m). Now I am trying to integrate it with ROS2
I have few questions
1. How can I linearly transform map, so that matlab map dimensions matches the gazebo map for turtlebot3.
2. does turtlebot3 requires cmd_vel for its rotation or movement or we can make it work with /position as well.
subscriber publisher code has been made where it recives /positions from matlab. It has been checked with
ros2 topic echo /position.
Though these things are working, but my tb3 is not moving.

Hi Imran,
I understand that you are trying to integrate MATLAB with ROS2 and want to know if you can linearly transform your map. You are also trying to resolve the issue of your Thunderbot3 not moving.
1. Linear Transformation of the Map:
- First, ensure that the dimensions of your MATLAB map match the dimensions of the Gazebo map for the Turtlebot3. If they don't match, you'll need to rescale your MATLAB map to match the size of the Turtlebot3's map.
- You can use the "imresize" function in MATLAB to resize your map. For example, if your MATLAB map is 20x20m and the Turtlebot3's map is 10x10m, you can resize your MATLAB map to match the Turtlebot3's map size using:
resizedMap = imresize(originalMap, [10 10]);
- Make sure to adjust the resolution of your map accordingly, so that it matches the resolution of the Turtlebot3's map.
- You can read more about the "imresize" function here. https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/imresize.html
2. Turtlebot3 Movement:
- The Turtlebot3 can be controlled using the "/cmd_vel" topic, which accepts "geometry_msgs/Twist" messages for both linear and angular velocities.
- To make the Turtlebot3 move, you need to publish Twist messages with appropriate linear and angular velocities to the "/cmd_vel" topic.
- Here are a few MATLAB Answers that might help you to understand and resolve your query. https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/537435-i-can-t-move-the-turtlebot3-with-matlab-and-ros https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/119559-why-is-the-ros-subscriber-callback-in-matlab-not-triggered-when-messages-are-published-from-an-exter
I hope this helps.

The "geometry_msgs/Twist" message is the correct message type to control the Turtlebot3's movement. The "geometry_msgs/Twist" message contains linear and angular velocities, which are required to control the robot's motion.
On the other hand, the "geometry_msgs/Point" message only contains x, y, and z coordinates, which are not sufficient to control the Turtlebot3's movement directly. That's why you are seeing all zero values when you check the "/cmd_vel" topic.
To control the Turtlebot3 using your MATLAB code, you need to modify it to publish "geometry_msgs/Twist "messages instead of "geometry_msgs/Point" messages. The "geometry_msgs/Twist" message should contain appropriate linear and angular velocities for the desired movement.
