I need help to find the appropriate drive controller, so far most seem to implement a pid with the encoders as a feed back mechanism.
Surely someone has already done this.... Looking for a recommendation of how to implement this.
Here are the specifics:
all of the differential drive packages I have found so far seem to require encoders.
My bot has an rplidar on it which is supposed to be able to provide odom via hector slam.(still having issues with this, but will post a separate thread)
I do not have encoders.
The goal is to have the rplidar provide the odom and the send the appropriate commands to the arduino that runs the l298 motor controller, this is a four wheel bot with only two motors, tank steer style.
Hector slam package installed and Moveit planning is in process, but obviously need this to respond to a navigation stack, I believe my arduino **MUST respond to cmd_vel** so that is what I am trying to make happen.
