2. AprilTag abnormal height sorting

AprilTag Abnormal Height Sorting

Before starting this function, you need to close the large program and APP processes. If you need to restart the large program and APP later, start them from the terminal:

bash ~/dofbot_pro/APP_DOFBOT_PRO/start_app.sh

1. Function Description

After the program starts, when the camera recognizes the AprilTag, it will grasp AprilTags with height higher than the set height and place them at the designated position.

The wooden blocks used in this lesson are: 30x30x30mm Machine Code Blocks and 30x30x60mm Machine Code Blocks.

2. Startup and Operation

2.1. Startup Commands

Enter in the terminal:

xxxxxxxxxx
#Start camera
ros2 launch orbbec_camera dabai_dcw2.launch.py
#Start inverse kinematics program
ros2 run dofbot_pro_info kinemarics_dofbot
#Start underlying control
ros2 run dofbot_pro_driver arm_driver
#Start AprilTag detection and recognition program
ros2 run dofbot_pro_driver apriltag_list
#Start robotic arm AprilTag grasping program
ros2 run dofbot_pro_driver apriltag_remove_higher

image-20240924200806153

2.2. Operation

Click on the image frame with the mouse, then press the spacebar on the keyboard. The robotic arm will grasp AprilTag blocks higher than the set height and place them at the designated position. After placement is completed, it will return to the recognition pose and continue to recognize AprilTags and detect if there are AprilTag blocks with abnormal height. The second time an abnormal height block is recognized, there is no need to press the spacebar for grasping. The terminal will print grasping information.
