teleop_tools

A set of generic teleoperation tools for any robot.

This contains the following teleoperation tools:

• joy_teleop, a generic joystick interface for topics and actions
• key_teleop, a lightweight console keyboard teleoperation utility
• mouse_teleop, a pointing device (e.g. mouse, touchpad) teleoperation utility

Changes

I hacked up the axis mapping portion of joy_teleop's topic command portion so I can use typical racing game controls on my robot. This is coupled with the parameters in this configuration file.

For an Xbox controller, this means that the right trigger is throttle position and the left joystick is steering and throttle direction.
