Hand control for teleoperation
The
SWD® Starter Kit
is delivered with a consumer type console joystick, for demonstration purpose only. The
wireless joystick is directly connected to the embedded iMX6 PC and allows a manual teleoperation of the
machine.
The
SWD® Starter Kit
uses standard ROS Noetic packages (using
joy
and
teleop_twist_joy
) providing
interfaces with a standard console joystick.
To activate the hand controller, ROS packages must be started.
The status of the ROS LED can be checked to confirm that ROS is active.
If the motion
control becomes jerky, then the joystick might be discharged. You should see joy’s LEDs
blinking.
If you unconfigured the original controller settings, you can press the ‘Reset’
button, on its rear.
