clearpath_bt_joy

Monitors a bluetooth joy controller’s link quality and cuts it off if the signal strength drops below a given threshold.

This provides a safety mechanism by which controllers that go out-of-range and latch their last-received input will not force the robot into an uncontrollable state.

Changelog for package clearpath_bt_joy

2.0.0 (2025-01-16)

• Improve joy telep support (#131)
  • Update description, add bluez dependency
  • Add the quality_cutoff parameter to all of the PS4 configuration files
  • Update the launch file to start the new cutoff node and additional twist_mux
  • Add udev rules for various controllers
  • Add dependency on the new bt cutoff package
  • Add xbox controller parameters for all platforms
  • Fix the PS4/5 axis ordering; the left stick shows up as axis 3/4, with the l/r analogue triggers being 2 & 5. Update omni control configurations accordingly
  • Add PS5 udev rules, config files
  • Add a timeout to the quality lock so we lock out the controller if the quality-checker node crashes
  • Set the respawn flag for the BT cutoff node and the joy_linux node
  • Add additional logging when blocking for services & IPC. Since we've added a timeout to the lock, publish fake quality data when using wired controllers. Log when this happens
