Control a robot with 2 motors and a H-bridge with Arduino and ROS?

Question

Hi all.

Does any one have a project which makes you connect an arduino to ROS, in order to control a robot with two motors connected to a h-bridge, just as a beginner project to get started?

Thanks, best regards!

Hey unfortunately not. I have tried to learn more c/c++ programming meanwhile and maybe I should look into it again. Any way if you figure it out or find more information please share it here for all to see. Thanks.

Have a look at the ros_arduino_bridge package. It does exactly what you want and has reasonable examples.

I have the same problem but I have to use raspberry pi3, so I think that this package is not fine for me, isn't it? It's a univ.ersity project and I am going crazy!

@v.leto: it sounds like your question is different from the original question here. I'd suggest you ask it as a new question, but it looks like already have, and have some better feedback there: https://answers.ros.org/question/331509/rover-raspberry-pi3l298-h-bridge-and-i2cpwm-library/
