naoqi_driver2

This repo defines the naoqi_driver package for ROS2. The driver is in charge of providing bridging capabilities between ROS2 and NAOqiOS.

How it works

The naoqi_driver is a ROS node. It connects to a robot running NAOqi using libQi. To support audio extraction, naoqi_driver opens a public endpoint, on a random port by default.

You can set a local endpoint instead by setting the qi_listen_url argument, e.g. qi_listen_url:=tcp://127.0.0.1:12345. In turn, audio extraction will be disabled.

Installation

Dependencies

To run, the driver requires the naoqi_libqi, naoqi_libqicore and naoqi_bridge_msgs packages. Those can be installed using apt-get (if they have been released for your ROS distro) or from source. Additionally, pepper_meshes and/or nao_meshes can be useful to display the robot in RViz.

On Ubuntu, install them using:

sudo apt-get install ros-<distro>-naoqi-libqi ros-<distro>-naoqi-libqicore ros-<distro>-naoqi-bridge-msgs ros-<distro>-pepper-meshes ros-<distro>-nao-meshes

Installing from source

In your ROS2 workspace, clone the repo and its dependencies:

cd <ws>/src
git clone https://github.com/ros-naoqi/naoqi_driver2.git
vcs import < naoqi_driver2/dependencies.repos
cd <ws>
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro <distro> -y

To install vcs: sudo apt-get install python3-vcstool

Then build the workspace:

cd <ws>
colcon build --symlink-install

Meshes can only be built on x86(_64) platforms. You can skip them by building with these arguments:

colcon build --packages-skip nao_meshes pepper_meshes

License of the meshes

The source repositories include pepper_meshes2 and nao_meshes2, which require an interactive agreement to be provided. If you agree to their license terms ( CC BY-NC-ND 4.0: pepper_meshes2 LICENSE, nao_meshes2 LICENSE). you may skip the interactive prompt by setting the AGREE_TO_NAO_MESHES_LICENSE and I_AGREE_TO_PEPPER_MESHES_LICENSE environment variables:

I_AGREE_TO_NAO_MESHES_LICENSE=1 I_AGREE_TO_PEPPER_MESHES_LICENSE=1 colcon build --symlink-install

Automated jobs on non-interactive environments (DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive) defaults to agreeing to the licenses, assuming the author of the job has agreed to the license terms.

Launch

Avoid interference with autonomous life

To have full control of the robot with ROS, you may want to disable autonomous behaviors first:

ssh nao@<robot_host>
qicli call ALAutonomousLife.setState disabled
qicli call ALMotion.wakeUp

NAOqi 2.8 and lower

naoqi_driver2

This repo defines the naoqi_driver package for ROS2. The driver is in charge of providing bridging capabilities between ROS2 and NAOqiOS.

How it works

The naoqi_driver is a ROS node. It connects to a robot running NAOqi using libQi. To support audio extraction, naoqi_driver opens a public endpoint, on a random port by default.

You can set a local endpoint instead by setting the qi_listen_url argument, e.g. qi_listen_url:=tcp://127.0.0.1:12345. In turn, audio extraction will be disabled.

Installation

Dependencies

To run, the driver requires the naoqi_libqi, naoqi_libqicore and naoqi_bridge_msgs packages. Those can be installed using apt-get (if they have been released for your ROS distro) or from source. Additionally, pepper_meshes and/or nao_meshes can be useful to display the robot in RViz.

On Ubuntu, install them using:

sudo apt-get install ros-<distro>-naoqi-libqi ros-<distro>-naoqi-libqicore ros-<distro>-naoqi-bridge-msgs ros-<distro>-pepper-meshes ros-<distro>-nao-meshes

Installing from source

In your ROS2 workspace, clone the repo and its dependencies:

cd <ws>/src
git clone https://github.com/ros-naoqi/naoqi_driver2.git
vcs import < naoqi_driver2/dependencies.repos
cd <ws>
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro <distro> -y

To install vcs: sudo apt-get install python3-vcstool

Then build the workspace:

cd <ws>
colcon build --symlink-install

Meshes can only be built on x86(_64) platforms. You can skip them by building with these arguments:

colcon build --packages-skip nao_meshes pepper_meshes

License of the meshes

The source repositories include pepper_meshes2 and nao_meshes2, which require an interactive agreement to be provided. If you agree to their license terms ( CC BY-NC-ND 4.0: pepper_meshes2 LICENSE, nao_meshes2 LICENSE). you may skip the interactive prompt by setting the AGREE_TO_NAO_MESHES_LICENSE and I_AGREE_TO_PEPPER_MESHES_LICENSE environment variables:

I_AGREE_TO_NAO_MESHES_LICENSE=1 I_AGREE_TO_PEPPER_MESHES_LICENSE=1 colcon build --symlink-install

Automated jobs on non-interactive environments (DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive) defaults to agreeing to the licenses, assuming the author of the job has agreed to the license terms.

Launch

Avoid interference with autonomous life

To have full control of the robot with ROS, you may want to disable autonomous behaviors first:

ssh nao@<robot_host>
qicli call ALAutonomousLife.setState disabled
qicli call ALMotion.wakeUp

README

naoqi_driver

This module establishes a ROS bridge with NAOqi. It publishes several sensor data as well as the robot position.

It also enables ROS to call parts of the NAOqi API. It was tested with a pepper robot.

Installation

For noetic, on Ubuntu 20.04:

sudo apt install ros-noetic-naoqi-driver

Dependencies

To run, the driver requires the naoqi_libqi, naoqi_libqicore and naoqi_bridge_msgs packages. Those can be installed using apt-get (if they have been released for your ROS distro) or from source. Additionally, pepper_meshes and/or nao_meshes can be useful if you try to display the robot in RViz.

How it works

The naoqi_driver module is a NAOqi module that also acts as a ROS node. Ros will automaticaly generate a roscore IP for the robot. Usually, you will start your roscore on your local desktop.

Once connected, normal ROS communication is happening between your robot, running NAOqi OS, and your desktop, running ROS.

Launch

Before launching, you may want to shutdown the autonomous life of the robot with the following process:

ssh nao@<naoip>
qicli call ALAutonomousLife.setState disabled
qicli call ALMotion.wakeUp

The driver can be launched using the following command:

Be aware that username and password arguments are only required for robots running NAOqi 2.9 or greater.

source <catkin_ws>/devel/setup.bash
roslaunch naoqi_driver naoqi_driver.launch nao_ip:=<ip> nao_port:=<port> roscore_ip := <ip> network_interface:=<interface> username:=<name> password:=<passwd>

Warning: naoqi_driver for melodic and greater have to be used for robots running NAOqi 2.9 and greater.

Warning: If you have a connection refused error such as this issue when using robots running NAOqi 2.8 and greater, please try to give nao_port:=9503 explicitly.

Check that the node is running correctly

Check that naoqi_driver is connected with :

rosnode info /naoqi_driver

Check that you can move the head by publishing on /joint_angles:

rostopic pub /joint_angles naoqi_bridge_msgs/JointAnglesWithSpeed "{header: {seq: 0, stamp: now, frame_id: ''}, joint_names: ['HeadYaw', 'HeadPitch'], joint_angles: [0.5,0.1], speed: 0.1, relative: 0}"

You can see the published message with rostopic echo /joint_angles

Check that you can move the robot by publishing on cmd_vel to make the robot move:

rostopic pub /cmd_vel geometry_msgs/Twist "linear:
  x: 2.0
  y: 0.0
  z: 0.0
angular:
  x: 0.0

README

naoqi_driver

This module establishes a ROS bridge with NAOqi. It publishes several sensor data as well as the robot position.

It also enables ROS to call parts of the NAOqi API. It was tested with a pepper robot.

Installation

For noetic, on Ubuntu 20.04:

sudo apt install ros-noetic-naoqi-driver

Dependencies

To run, the driver requires the naoqi_libqi, naoqi_libqicore and naoqi_bridge_msgs packages. Those can be installed using apt-get (if they have been released for your ROS distro) or from source. Additionally, pepper_meshes and/or nao_meshes can be useful if you try to display the robot in RViz.

How it works

The naoqi_driver module is a NAOqi module that also acts as a ROS node. Ros will automaticaly generate a roscore IP for the robot. Usually, you will start your roscore on your local desktop.

Once connected, normal ROS communication is happening between your robot, running NAOqi OS, and your desktop, running ROS.

Launch

Before launching, you may want to shutdown the autonomous life of the robot with the following process:

ssh nao@<naoip>
qicli call ALAutonomousLife.setState disabled
qicli call ALMotion.wakeUp

The driver can be launched using the following command:

Be aware that username and password arguments are only required for robots running NAOqi 2.9 or greater.

source <catkin_ws>/devel/setup.bash
roslaunch naoqi_driver naoqi_driver.launch nao_ip:=<ip> nao_port:=<port> roscore_ip := <ip> network_interface:=<interface> username:=<name> password:=<passwd>

Warning: naoqi_driver for melodic and greater have to be used for robots running NAOqi 2.9 and greater.

Warning: If you have a connection refused error such as this issue when using robots running NAOqi 2.8 and greater, please try to give nao_port:=9503 explicitly.

Check that the node is running correctly

Check that naoqi_driver is connected with :

rosnode info /naoqi_driver

Check that you can move the head by publishing on /joint_angles:

rostopic pub /joint_angles naoqi_bridge_msgs/JointAnglesWithSpeed "{header: {seq: 0, stamp: now, frame_id: ''}, joint_names: ['HeadYaw', 'HeadPitch'], joint_angles: [0.5,0.1], speed: 0.1, relative: 0}"

You can see the published message with rostopic echo /joint_angles

Check that you can move the robot by publishing on cmd_vel to make the robot move:
