TAMS Master Project 2022/2023

CI ROS Version Noetic

This repository contains the codebase for a Marimba playing robot developed during the TAMS Master Project 2022/2023.

marimba playing robot

Project Overview

The project is separated into multiple different modules. Each module contains localized documentation.

Module Brief Description
marimbabot_audio Contains the audio analysis related code pieces
marimbabot_behavior Implements the behaviour of the robot which interfaces with most other systems
marimbabot_bringup The main bringup of the system used to for starting the project
marimbabot_description Contains the descriptions of the physical compontents of the robot for control and simulation
marimbabot_hardware The ros_control driver for the servo based hardware.
marimbabot_msgs The shared ros message and action definitions
marimbabot_planning Contains the code for taking a input of notes and generate a trajectory for the robot
marimbabot_simulation Facilitates the simulation of the robot and marimba
marimbabot_speech Text to speech and speech to text and eventual command
marimbabot_ur5_flex_double_moveit_config MoveIT config for the UR5 with the marimba and the two mallet holder.
marimbabot_ur5_moveit_config MoveIT config for the UR5 and the marimba
marimbabot_vision Implements the vision model for the note recognition and facilitates the related dataset generation

Setup

The robot uses Ubuntu 20.04 and ROS noetic. So make sure that it is installed on your system. Visit the ROS Wiki for further details. For Python version 3.8 is used.

Remember to source the ROS noetic installation in EACH terminal you use or add it once to your .bashrc file like this:

echo "source /opt/ros/noetic/setup.bash" >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc

Make sure to setup your ssh key for easy synchronization without authorization.

We are using VCS for workspace management, so install it first:

sudo apt install python3-vcstool

Run the following commands:

# Create catkin workspace folder
mkdir -p catkin_ws/src

# Clone repository into source folder
cd catkin_ws/src
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/UHHRobotics22-23/marimbabot/main/workspace.repos | vcs import --recursive
cd ..

# Initialize workspace
catkin init

# Setup rosdep to download dependencies (only needed once after installing ROS)
sudo rosdep init

# Update rosdep packages list
rosdep update

# Install all dependencies needed by our repository
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -r -y
# Unfortunately this is needed as for unknown reasons the dependency is not recognized
rosdep install serial

# Install python dependencies
pip3 install wheel  # firstly install the wheel for further package building if you start from a empty virtual environment.
pip3 install -r src/marimbabot/requirements.txt

#install the precise engine
wget https://github.com/MycroftAI/mycroft-precise/releases/download/v0.3.0/precise-engine_0.3.0_x86_64.tar.gz
tar -zxvf precise-engine_0.3.0_x86_64.tar.gz -C src/marimbabot/marimbabot_speech/utils/kws/
rm precise-engine_0.3.0_x86_64.tar.gz

Now you are ready to go.

Update workspace

You might want to update the state of the software and get recent changes. Normally a simple pull should be enough.

# Go to the repository
cd catkin_ws/src/marimbabot

# Pull recent changes
git pull

You sometimes also want to update the dependencies if new ones have been introduced. You can do this like this:

# Go to workspace
cd catkin_ws

# Update rosdep packages list
rosdep update

# Install new dependencies
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -r -y
# Unfortunately this is needed as for unknown reasons the dependency is not recognized
sudo apt install ros-noetic-serial

# Install new python dependencies
pip3 install --upgrade -r requirements.txt

Build

To build the full software stack one needs to execute the following command in the catkin_ws folder or any of its subdirectories:

# Go to workspace
cd catkin_ws

catkin build

Launch

Before you launch any of the provided launch files remember to source the current workspace by typing:

# Go to workspace
cd catkin_ws

source devel/setup.bash

Prerequisites and Configuration

Additionally to the UR5, the following devices have to be connected and configured before launching the project:

  1. Logitech StreamCam (packages marimbabot_vision and marimbabot_speech)
  2. Scarlett 2i2 USB Audio Interface (package marimbabot_audio)
  3. Wifi connection to the MalletHolder (package marimbabot_hardware)

Logitech StreamCam (required for packages marimbabot_vision and marimbabot_speech):

Change the parameter device of the node audio_capture in the launch file of the package marimbabot_speech:

marimbabot_speech/launch/command_recognition.launch

and modify the device_id parameter in the configuration file of the package marimbabot_vision:

marimbabot_vision/config/cv_camera.yaml

Scarlett 2i2 USB Audio Interface (required for package marimbabot_audio):

Adjust the device parameter for the note_audio_capture node in the launch file of the package marimbabot_audio:

marimbabot_audio/launch/audio_feedback.launch

Wifi connection to the MalletHolder

You should be connected to its Wifi. Please see the README of the package marimbabot_hardware and README of the package marimbabot_bringup for further information.

Launch the whole project

In order to run the whole project on the real robot, one has to run two launch files. First, the launch file that sets up the robot and its hardware:

roslaunch marimbabot_bringup marimbabot_ur5_bringup.launch

Second, the launch file that brings up the launch file for each package:

roslaunch marimbabot_bringup marimbabot.launch

Note for development: Add the main launch files to the bringup if they are created.

To run the UR5 setup with the MoveIt Demo Mode and two mallets run

roslaunch marimbabot_ur5_flex_double_moveit_config demo.launch

you should be able to test simple planning things with it.

To view the marimba model in RViz run

roslaunch marimbabot_description marimba_rviz.launch

Launch single packages

To launch a single package run this command each package:

roslaunch marimbabot_audio marimbabot.launch
# or
roslaunch marimbabot_planning marimbabot.launch
# or
roslaunch marimbabot_vision marimbabot.launch

This comes handy for purposes like debugging or testing.

How do I contribute

To contribute changes to this repository go to the repository in your file system and create a new branch. Replace the placeholder fix/my_dummy_branch with a short but descriptive branch name:

git switch -c fix/my_dummy_branch

Now commit your changes and push them:

# Run this once if the repo is new. It will save you an additional command when pushing new branches.
git config push.autoSetupRemote true

# Now we can push our changes
git push

Now you can create a pull request for your branch and merge it (after it is approved) into the main branch using the GitHub website.

Additional Resources

MoveIT config

The project contains two MoveIT configuration definitions (marimbabot_ur5_moveit_config and marimbabot_ur5_flex_double_moveit_config).

The MoveIT configs were generated using the MoveIT Setup Assistant. When the description of the robot is changed and contains new controlable joints.

Generally the main additional work required for the MoveIT config setup is the collision matrix setup, where non-colliding elements have to be removed from the collision checks.
