Hello all, I need to get the actual world position of a pioneer bot within the Gazebo simulation. I've found that currently getting the position from SimulationProxy always returns the INITIAL position of the pioneer bot, and never updates, and getting the position from the bot itself returns an inaccurate position due to wheel slippage. It appears there used to be a TruthWidget that fulfilled this need, but that has since been discontinued. I know the real world doesn't give you an accurate coordinate system, but for the purpose of my research I need an accurate position within the Gazebo simulation. This question was asked somewhat recently, but never was answered, so I'm dredging it back up again,
Hoping you all can help! -John -- ----- John H. C. Staton, M.S.C.S.
