772a70b545 feat: Nav2 path planning + obstacle avoidance (Phase 2b)
Integrates Nav2 autonomous navigation stack with RTAB-Map SLAM on Orin
Nano Super. No AMCL/map_server needed — RTAB-Map provides /map + TF.

New files:
- jetson/config/nav2_params.yaml                           DWB controller,
  NavFn planner, RPLIDAR obstacle layer, RealSense voxel layer;
  10Hz local / 5Hz global costmap; robot_radius 0.15m, max_vel 1.0 m/s
- jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_bringup/launch/nav2.launch.py
  wraps nav2_bringup navigation_launch with saltybot params + BT XML
- jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_bringup/behavior_trees/
    navigate_to_pose_with_recovery.xml  BT: replan@1Hz, DWB follow,
    recovery: clear maps → spin 90° → wait 5s → back up 0.30m

Updated:
- jetson/docker-compose.yml             add saltybot-nav2 service
                                        (depends_on: saltybot-ros2)
- jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_bringup/setup.py   install behavior_trees/*.xml
- jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_bringup/package.xml add rtabmap_ros + nav2_bringup
- projects/saltybot/SLAM-SETUP-PLAN.md  Phase 2b  Done

a50f22d56b feat: Nav2 cmd_vel to STM32 autonomous drive bridge
Adds cmd_vel_bridge_node — a standalone ROS2 node that subscribes to
Nav2 /cmd_vel and drives the STM32 over USB CDC with:
  - Hard velocity limits (max_linear_vel=0.5 m/s, max_angular_vel=2.0 rad/s)
  - Smooth ESC ramp (500 ESC-units/s, 50 Hz control loop)
  - Deadman switch: zeros targets if /cmd_vel silent >500 ms
  - Mode gate: sends drive only when STM32 reports md=2 (AUTONOMOUS)
  - Telemetry RX → /saltybot/imu, /saltybot/balance_state, /diagnostics
  - Heartbeat TX every 200 ms (H\n)

Deliverables:
  saltybot_bridge/cmd_vel_bridge_node.py   — node implementation
  config/cmd_vel_bridge_params.yaml        — tunable parameters
  launch/cmd_vel_bridge.launch.py          — standalone launch file
  test/test_cmd_vel_bridge.py              — 37 pytest unit tests (no ROS2)
  setup.py                                 — register node + new data files

c5d6a72d39 feat: update SLAM stack for Jetson Orin Nano Super (67 TOPS, JetPack 6)
Platform upgrade: Jetson Nano 4GB → Orin Nano Super 8GB (March 1, 2026)
All Nano-era constraints removed — power/rate/resolution limits obsolete.

Dockerfile: l4t-jetpack:r36.2.0 (JetPack 6 / Ubuntu 22.04 / CUDA 12.x),
  ROS2 Humble via native apt, added ros-humble-rtabmap-ros,
  ros-humble-v4l2-camera for future IMX219 CSI (Phase 2c)

New: slam_rtabmap.launch.py — Orin primary SLAM entry point
  RTAB-Map with subscribe_scan (RPLIDAR) + subscribe_rgbd (D435i)
  Replaces slam_toolbox as docker-compose default

New: config/rtabmap_params.yaml — Orin-optimized
  DetectionRate 10Hz, MaxFeatures 1000, Grid/3D true,
  TimeThr 0 (no limit), Mem/STMSize 0 (unlimited)

Updated: config/realsense_d435i.yaml — 848x480x30, pointcloud enabled
Updated: config/slam_toolbox_params.yaml — 10Hz rate, 1s map interval
Updated: SLAM-SETUP-PLAN.md — full rewrite for Orin: arch diagram,
  Phase 2c IMX219 plan (4x 160° CSI surround), 25W power budget

docker-compose.yml: image tag jetson-orin, default → slam_rtabmap.launch.py

22aaeb02cf feat: Jetson→STM32 command protocol — /cmd_vel to serial (Phase 2)
STM32 firmware (C):
- include/jetson_cmd.h: protocol constants (HB_TIMEOUT_MS=500,
  SPEED_MAX_DEG=4°), API for jetson_cmd_process/is_active/steer/sp_offset
- src/jetson_cmd.c: main-loop parser for buffered C<spd>,<str> frames;
  setpoint offset = speed/1000 * 4°; steer clamped ±1000
- lib/USB_CDC/src/usbd_cdc_if.c: add H (heartbeat) and C (drive cmd) to
  CDC_Receive ISR — follows existing pattern: H updates jetson_hb_tick in
  ISR, C copied to jetson_cmd_buf for main-loop sscanf (avoids sscanf in IRQ)
- src/main.c: integrate jetson_cmd — process buffered frame, apply setpoint
  offset around balance_update(), inject steer into motor_driver_update()
  only when heartbeat alive (fallback: steer=0, setpoint unchanged)

ROS2 (Python):
- saltybot_cmd_node.py: full bidirectional node — owns serial port, handles
  telemetry RX → topics AND /cmd_vel TX → C<spd>,<str>\n + H\n heartbeat
  200ms timer; sends C0,0\n on shutdown; speed/steer_scale configurable
- serial_bridge_node.py: add write_serial() helper for extensibility
- launch/bridge.launch.py: mode arg (bidirectional|rx_only) selects node
- config/bridge_params.yaml: heartbeat_period, speed_scale, steer_scale docs
- test/test_cmd.py: 13 tests — zero, full fwd/rev, turn clamping, combined
- setup.py: saltybot_cmd_node entry point

All 21 tests pass (8 parse + 13 cmd).

a89297f1d4 Merge pull request 'feat(bd-a2j): Sensor driver integration — RealSense D435i + RPLIDAR A1M8' (#17) from sl-perception/bd-a2j-sensor-drivers into main 2026-02-28 17:19:41 -05:00
76067d6d89 feat(bd-a2j): RealSense D435i + RPLIDAR A1M8 ROS2 driver integration
Adds saltybot_bringup ROS2 package with four launch files:
  - realsense.launch.py  — D435i at 640x480x15fps, IMU unified topic
  - rplidar.launch.py    — RPLIDAR A1M8 via /dev/rplidar udev symlink
  - sensors.launch.py    — both sensors + static TF (base_link→laser/camera)
  - slam.launch.py       — sensors + slam_toolbox online_async (compose entry point)

Sensor config YAMLs (mounted at /config/ in container):
  - realsense_d435i.yaml  — Nano power-budget settings (15fps, no pointcloud)
  - rplidar_a1m8.yaml     — Standard scan mode, 115200 baud, laser frame
  - slam_toolbox_params.yaml — Nano-tuned (2Hz processing, 5cm resolution)

Fixes docker-compose volume mount: ./ros2_ws/src:/ros2_ws/src
(was ./ros2_ws:/ros2_ws/src — would have double-nested the src directory)

Topic reference and verification commands in SENSORS.md.

7c4e46aaa1 feat: STM32-to-Jetson ROS2 serial bridge node
saltybot_bridge ROS2 Python package (ament_python):
- serial_bridge_node.py: reads USB CDC JSON telemetry from STM32F722 at 50Hz
  Parses exact firmware format: {"p","r","e","ig","m","s","y"} (all ×10 ints)
  State enum: 0=DISARMED, 1=ARMED, 2=TILT_FAULT (matched to balance_state_t)
- Publishes sensor_msgs/Imu on /saltybot/imu (pitch/roll/yaw as angular_velocity)
- Publishes std_msgs/String on /saltybot/balance_state (full PID JSON diagnostics)
- Publishes diagnostic_msgs/DiagnosticArray on /diagnostics (OK/WARN/ERROR by state)
- Auto-reconnects on serial disconnect; IMU fault frames → ERROR diagnostic
- launch/bridge.launch.py with serial_port + baud_rate launch args
- config/bridge_params.yaml (921600 baud, /dev/ttyACM0)
- test/test_parse.py: 8 unit tests covering normal, fault, edge cases (all pass)
