[orocosusers] Updates on Orocos ROS 1 and 2 integration

johannesmeyer — Tue, 30 Jun 2020 17:27:51 +0000

Dear community members,

We are happy to announce that we are making a big push forward on Orocos
<https://www.orocos.org />, made possible with the support of the European
Union’s Horizon 2020 ROSIN project (www.rosin-project.eu) and Houston
Mechatronics (https://www.houstonmechatronics.com/).

The Orocos <https://www.orocos.org /> project came to live almost 20 years
ago with the goal to develop a framework for real-time safe interaction
between individual software components in a robotics system, and to
establish a library of ready-to-use components.

[orocosusers] Dynamic port type

Keivan_Zavari — Fri, 25 Nov 2016 10:07:04 +0000

Dear Orocos users,

In order to make a component as general as possible I decided to make a
property which would give the possibility to choose the port type e.g.
choose between KDL::Twist, std::vector, geometry_msgs:Twist.

- So my first question is, what is the best way of doing this?

CORBA transport, component to non-component

pr0t0z — Fri, 04 Nov 2016 02:16:12 +0000

Dear all,

- Ubuntu 14.04 - Orocos Toolchain 2.8 - omniORB4

I want to create a non-component client to communicate (operations/ports) with a component server across the network using CORBA.

I manage to get two components through the network using CORBA, which is rather straightforward to set up, since the deployer registers CORBA transports for the typekits.

So I am pretty much covered from the server side.

[orocosusers] EtherCAT communication

Keivan_Zavari — Wed, 05 Oct 2016 15:12:46 +0000

Dear Orocos-Users

I am using soem to read data at 800Hz in a real-time kernel and I
occasionally get the warning of

*[ Warning][soem] receiving data failed*

I perform this operation using my own laptop (XPS-15-9530 with no
built-in Ethernet + USB3-Ethernet adapter).

Does anyone know why is the information lost somewhere? Is this because
of not having a physical Ethernet card?

This is my kernel: 3.18.42-rt45 #2 SMP PREEMPT RT x86_64 GNU/Linux

and I have installed Orocos, Ros, Soem from standard ubuntu repository...

Cheers

Keivan

[orocosusers] Two consumers of the data

Keivan_Zavari — Wed, 21 Sep 2016 12:42:16 +0000

Dear All,

If two components (C1 & C2) read the data coming from another component
(C3.outport) or a ros node (N1.topic), what do I get in the following
situation?

---------

C3.outport connected to C1.inport

C3.outport connected to C2.inport

---------

*in updateHook the condition:*

---------

C1.inport == RTT::NewData

C2.inport == RTT::NewData

---------

Do I get NewData in both components? Or do I get NewData only in the
first component that reads the data?

[orocosusers] Mailinglist archives

Hello,

I saved a post from the "old" mailing list for later reading but i can't
access it :(
http://lists.mech.kuleuven.be/pipermail/orocos-dev/2011-March/009976.html
How can I access the new archives ?

Thanks !

[orocosusers] getting a permission denied on deployers after running setcap for soem

gianniborghesan — Thu, 08 Sep 2016 09:03:15 +0000

Hi all,

I am running indigo+14.04,

i need to use the soem master, I execute

sudo setcap cap_net_raw+ep /opt/ros/indigo/bin/rttlua-gnulinux

after doing that calling the rttlua gives

$ rttlua-gnulinux
Real-time memory: 517904 bytes free of 524288 allocated.
0.023 [ ERROR ][Thread] Failed to set thread name for lua: Permission
denied
0.023 [CRITICAL][Thread] Could not create thread lua.
pure virtual method called
terminate called without an active exception
Aborted (core dumped)

something similar happens also for the normal deployer (after the setcap
command).
