总结：
一、机器人描述文件三个：
机器人主体body文件：
gazebo属性文件：
主文件 smartcar.urdf：
二、启动文件smartcar_display.rviz.launch：启动节点和模拟器。
三、新增smartcar_description/config/smartcar_arbotix.yaml文件：
四、urdf.rviz文件：
cp /opt/ros/indigo/share/urdf_tutorial/rviz/urdf.rviz
1.indigo版本机器人主体文件：smartcar_description/urdf/smartcar_body.urdf.xacro
- 修改
property，为xacro:property - 修改
include， 为xacro:include

2.gazebo属性部分 smartcar_description/urdf/gazebo.urdf.xacro
<?xml version="1.0"?> <robot xmlns:controller="http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/gazebo/xmlschema/#controller" xmlns:interface="http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/gazebo/xmlschema/#interface" xmlns:sensor="http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/gazebo/xmlschema/#sensor" xmlns:xacro="http://ros.org/wiki/xacro" name="smartcar_gazebo"> <!-- ASUS Xtion PRO camera for simulation --> <!-- gazebo_ros_wge100 plugin is in kt2_gazebo_plugins package --> <xacro:macro name="smartcar_sim"> <gazebo reference="base_link"> <material>Gazebo/Blue</material> </gazebo> <gazebo reference="right_front_wheel"> <material>Gazebo/FlatBlack</material> </gazebo> <gazebo reference="right_back_wheel"> <material>Gazebo/FlatBlack</material> </gazebo> <gazebo reference="left_front_wheel"> <material>Gazebo/FlatBlack</material> </gazebo> <gazebo reference="left_back_wheel"> <material>Gazebo/FlatBlack</material> </gazebo> <gazebo reference="head"> <material>Gazebo/White</material> </gazebo> </xacro:macro> </robot>
3.主文件：smartcar_description/urdf/smartcar.urdf.xacro
<?xml version="1.0"?> <robot name="smartcar" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude" xmlns:gazebo="http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/gazebo/xmlschema/#gz" xmlns:model="http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/gazebo/xmlschema/#model" xmlns:sensor="http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/gazebo/xmlschema/#sensor" xmlns:body="http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/gazebo/xmlschema/#body" xmlns:geom="http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/gazebo/xmlschema/#geom" xmlns:joint="http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/gazebo/xmlschema/#joint" xmlns:controller="http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/gazebo/xmlschema/#controller" xmlns:interface="http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/gazebo/xmlschema/#interface" xmlns:rendering="http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/gazebo/xmlschema/#rendering" xmlns:renderable="http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/gazebo/xmlschema/#renderable" xmlns:physics="http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/gazebo/xmlschema/#physics" xmlns:xacro="http://ros.org/wiki/xacro"> <xacro:include filename="$(find smartcar_description)/urdf/smartcar_body.urdf.xacro" /> <!-- Body of SmartCar, with plates, standoffs and Create (including sim sensors) --> <smartcar_body/> <smartcar_sim/> </robot>
二、lanuch文件，smartcar_description/launch/smartcar_display.rviz.launch
<launch>
<param name="/use_sim_time" value="false" />
<!-- Load the URDF/Xacro model of our robot -->
<arg name="urdf_file" default="$(find xacro)/xacro.py '$(find smartcar_description)/urdf/smartcar.urdf.xacro'" />
<arg name="gui" default="false" />
<param name="robot_description" command="$(arg urdf_file)" />
<param name="use_gui" value="$(arg gui)"/>
<node name="arbotix" pkg="arbotix_python" type="arbotix_driver" output="screen">
<rosparam file="$(find smartcar_description)/config/smartcar_arbotix.yaml" command="load" />
<param name="sim" value="true"/>
</node>
<node name="joint_state_publisher" pkg="joint_state_publisher" type="joint_state_publisher" >
</node>
<node name="robot_state_publisher" pkg="robot_state_publisher" type="state_publisher">
<param name="publish_frequency" type="double" value="20.0" />
</node>
<!-- We need a static transforms for the wheels -->
<node pkg="tf" type="static_transform_publisher" name="odom_left_wheel_broadcaster" args="0 0 0 0 0 0 /base_link /left_front_link 100" />
<node pkg="tf" type="static_transform_publisher" name="odom_right_wheel_broadcaster" args="0 0 0 0 0 0 /base_link /right_front_link 100" />
<node name="rviz" pkg="rviz" type="rviz" args="-d $(find smartcar_description)/urdf.rviz" />
</launch>
4.在indigo版本里，新增smartcar_description/config/smartcar_arbotix.yaml文件，内容为：
port: /dev/ttyUSB0 baud: 115200 rate: 20 sync_write: True sync_read: True read_rate: 20 write_rate: 20 controllers: { # Pololu motors: 1856 cpr = 0.3888105m travel = 4773 ticks per meter (empirical: 4100) base_controller: {type: diff_controller, base_frame_id: base_link, base_width: 0.26, ticks_meter: 4100, Kp: 12, Kd: 12, Ki: 0, Ko: 50, accel_limit: 1.0 } }
5.urdf.rviz文件：(或者自己按照目录找到了copy过来，如果没有就先安装这个包：urdf_tutorial
$ cp /opt/ros/indigo/share/urdf_tutorial/rviz/urdf.rviz
三、仿真测试
首先运行lanuch，既可以看到rviz中的机器人：
roslaunch smartcar_description smartcar_display.rviz.launch
然后在新建终端中运行：
rostopic pub -r 10 /cmd_vel geometry_msgs/Twist '{linear: {x: 0.5, y: 0, z: 0}, angular: {x: 0, y: 0, z: 0.5}}'
运行结果：
如果小车跑不起来，把Global中的fixed frame改成odom，就好了
