What problem does it solve?

Compute odometry for a differential-drive robot from wheel encoder signals to deliver pose and velocity estimates for navigation and control.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Quadrature encoding fundamentals, velocity estimation, and forward kinematics for differential-drive robots.
  • Pose integration options (Euler, Runge-Kutta, exact arc) and covariance estimation for ROS 2 nav messages.
  • Useful for calibration and simulation, ROS 2 nodes publishing /odom and base_link transforms.

Quick Start

Run an encoder-based odometry node that subscribes to wheel counts and publishes /odom and base_link transform.
