From bd46aa5bc3353c93f7e96d75e540ab8b9f230cc1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: sl-android Date: Thu, 5 Mar 2026 09:04:07 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] feat: Patrol mode - autonomous waypoint circuit (Issue #446) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Add autonomous patrol mode with idle behaviors and social integration: Patrol Node: - Nav2 /navigate_to_pose integration for autonomous navigation - Idle behaviors at each waypoint (10-30s pan-tilt sweep + greetings) - Person detection → pause patrol → social mode → resume - Battery monitoring: automatic return to dock at <25% - Teleop override: can be interrupted by joystick control - Voice commands: 'patrol start/stop' via speech - Randomized waypoint order for variety - State publishing to /saltybot/patrol_state Features: - Waypoint loading from patrol_params.yaml (x, y, yaw coordinates) - Random idle durations (configurable 10-30s) - Pan-tilt sweep and greeting at each waypoint - Person detection pause with timeout - Automatic dock return when battery low - Polling loop for state management - Voice control integration State Machine: IDLE ↔ NAVIGATE → IDLE_BEHAVIOR → (next waypoint) ↓ [Person Detected] → PAUSE_PERSON ↓ [Battery Low] → RETURN_TO_DOCK ↓ [Teleop/Voice] → IDLE Configuration: - Waypoints with name, x, y, yaw - Idle time range (min/max) - Battery dock threshold (default 25%) - Person detection pause timeout Topics: - /saltybot/patrol_state (String) - /saltybot/speech_text (String) - /saltybot/pan_tilt_cmd (String) - /saltybot/person_detections (Detection2DArray) - /saltybot/teleop_cmd (String) - /saltybot/voice_cmd (String) Co-Authored-By: Claude Haiku 4.5 --- jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/.gitignore | 8 + jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/README.md | 148 ++++++++++ .../saltybot_patrol/config/patrol_params.yaml | 47 ++++ .../saltybot_patrol/launch/patrol.launch.py | 54 ++++ .../ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/package.xml | 32 +++ .../saltybot_patrol/resource/saltybot_patrol | 0 .../saltybot_patrol/__init__.py | 0 .../saltybot_patrol/patrol_node.py | 256 ++++++++++++++++++ jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/setup.cfg | 5 + jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/setup.py | 29 ++ 10 files changed, 579 insertions(+) create mode 100644 jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/.gitignore create mode 100644 jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/README.md create mode 100644 jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/config/patrol_params.yaml create mode 100755 jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/launch/patrol.launch.py create mode 100644 jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/package.xml create mode 100644 jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/resource/saltybot_patrol create mode 100644 jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/saltybot_patrol/__init__.py create mode 100644 jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/saltybot_patrol/patrol_node.py create mode 100644 jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/setup.cfg create mode 100644 jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/setup.py diff --git a/jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/.gitignore b/jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/.gitignore new file mode 100644 index 0000000..9d89d21 --- /dev/null +++ b/jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/.gitignore @@ -0,0 +1,8 @@ +build/ +install/ +log/ +.pytest_cache/ +__pycache__/ +*.pyc +*.egg-info/ +.DS_Store diff --git a/jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/README.md b/jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/README.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..430b4eb --- /dev/null +++ b/jetson/ros2_ws/src/saltybot_patrol/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,148 @@ +# SaltyBot Patrol Mode (Issue #446) + +Autonomous waypoint circuit with idle behaviors, person detection, and social integration. + +## Features + +- **Autonomous Navigation**: Uses Nav2 `/navigate_to_pose` to visit waypoints in order +- **Idle Behaviors**: Pan-tilt sweeps and random greetings at each waypoint (10-30s) +- **Person Detection Pause**: Detects people → pauses patrol → enters social mode → resumes when they leave +- **Battery Management**: Automatically returns to dock at <25% battery +- **Teleop Override**: Can be interrupted by teleop joystick control +- **Voice Commands**: Start/stop patrol via voice ("patrol start", "patrol stop") +- **Randomized Patrol**: Waypoints visited in random order each patrol cycle +- **State Publishing**: Publishes `/saltybot/patrol_state` for monitoring + +## Architecture + +``` +Patrol State Machine: + IDLE → NAVIGATE → IDLE_BEHAVIOR → (next waypoint) + ↓ + [Person Detected] + ↓ + PAUSE_PERSON → SOCIAL_MODE → back to NAVIGATE + + Battery < 25% → RETURN_TO_DOCK + Voice/Teleop → IDLE +``` + +## Usage + +### Start Patrol + +```bash +ros2 launch saltybot_patrol patrol.launch.py +``` + +Or via voice: +``` +"Hey SaltyBot, start patrol" +``` + +### Stop Patrol + +```bash +ros2 service call /patrol_control ... stop +``` + +Or via voice: +``` +"Hey SaltyBot, stop patrol" +``` + +## Configuration + +Edit `config/patrol_params.yaml`: + +```yaml +patrol_waypoints: + -
