Detailed Description

Joint position controller which can be attached to a model with a reference to a single joint.

A new Ignition Transport topic is created to send target joint positions. The topic name is "/model/<model_name>/joint/<joint_name>/<joint_index>/cmd_pos".

This topic accepts gz::msgs::Double values representing the target position. If you wish to change the topic on which this plugin listens you may use the <topic> parameter to specify which topic the plugin should listen on.

System Parameters

<joint_name> The name of the joint to control. Required parameter.

<joint_index> Axis of the joint to control. Optional parameter. The default value is 0.

<p_gain> The proportional gain of the PID. Optional parameter. The default value is 1.

<i_gain> The integral gain of the PID. Optional parameter. The default value is 0.1.

<d_gain> The derivative gain of the PID. Optional parameter. The default value is 0.01

<i_max> The integral upper limit of the PID. Optional parameter. The default value is 1.

<i_min> The integral lower limit of the PID. Optional parameter. The default value is -1.

<cmd_max> Output max value of the PID. Optional parameter. The default value is 1000.

<cmd_min> Output min value of the PID. Optional parameter. The default value is -1000.

<cmd_offset> Command offset (feed-forward) of the PID. Optional parameter. The default value is 0.

<use_velocity_commands> Bypasses the PID and creates a perfect position. The maximum speed on the joint can be set using the <cmd_max> tag.

<topic> If you wish to listen on a non-default topic you may specify it here, otherwise the controller defaults to listening on "/model/<model_name>/joint/<joint_name>/<joint_index>/cmd_pos".

<initial_position> Initial position of a joint. Optional parameter. The default value is 0.
