Joystick Actuator¶
A ‘fake’ actuator that allows to move a robot from the joystick.
This actuator does not require a connection with external data. It simply responds to the joystick to generate movement instructions for the robot attached.
Configuration parameters for Joystick Actuator¶
You can set these properties in your scripts with <component>.properties(<property1>=..., <property2>=...)
.
ControlType
(string, default:"Velocity"
)- Kind of control to move the parent robot, in [‘Position’, ‘Velocity’, ‘Differential’]
Speed
(float, default:1.0
)- Movement speed of the parent robot, in m/s
Data fields¶
No data field documented (see above for possible notes).
Services for Joystick Actuator¶
get_configurations()
(blocking)Returns the configurations of a component (parsed from the properties).
Return value
a dictionary of the current component’s configurations
get_properties()
(blocking)Returns the properties of a component.
Return value
a dictionary of the current component’s properties
set_property(prop_name, prop_val)
(blocking)Modify one property on a component
Parameters
prop_name
: the name of the property to modify (as shown the documentation)prop_val
: the new value of the property. Note that there is no checking about the type of the value so be careful
Return value
nothing
Examples¶
The following examples show how to use this component in a Builder script:
from morse.builder import *
# adds a default robot (the MORSE mascott!)
robot = Morsy()
# creates a new instance of the joystick actuator
joystick = Joystick()
robot.append(keyboard)
env = Environment('empty')
# Run this simulation: you can move the robot with your joystick.
