Add hand_eye_calibration_sim config - #873
Conversation
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
📝 WalkthroughSummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughChangesThe pull request adds a complete ROS 2 hand-eye calibration simulation package. It includes MuJoCo robot and scene assets, ChArUco texture generation, runtime configuration, launch integration, gripper behaviors, waypoints, package metadata, licenses, and documentation. Hand-Eye Calibration Simulation
Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This PR adds a calibration simulation package, but the current head still has merge-readiness issues: build and installation dependency declarations are incomplete, path handling is not relocatable, calibration ground truth is not fully pinned to the board image frame, and objective metadata is inconsistent. These issues could cause setup failures or incorrect calibration results, so the PR should not merge until they are fixed. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4✅ Passed checks (4 passed)

Resolve package paths through the ament package index.
The source path assumes an isolated install layout. Merged or system installs can make find_package(picknik_accessories) succeed while this path is invalid. The absolute DEST_DIR also prevents relocation with cmake --install --prefix.
Resolve the dependency share directory through an ament index helper or exported CMake path. Use a relative destination such as share/${PROJECT_NAME}/description.

Fix the top-level objective metadata blocks. Both objective files must contain one <MetadataFields> block with subcategory and runnable="true". Remove the duplicate metadata block in close_gripper.xml, and add the missing runnable entry in open_gripper.xml; otherwise objective validation will reject the package.

ROS 2 package.xml format 3 dependency tags find_package build_depend exec_depend depend official documentation
💡 Result:
In ROS 2, the package.xml format 3 is the standard specification for package manifests [1][2]. It is identified by the attribute format="3" within the tag [1][3]. This format allows developers to manage dependencies explicitly, facilitating correct build ordering and system dependency resolution via rosdep [4][5]. Key dependency tags in format 3 include: : This is a concise, catch-all tag used when a dependency is required for both building and execution [6][7]. It replaces the need to specify the same package individually in <build_depend>, <build_export_depend>, and <exec_depend> [6][7]. <build_depend>: Used for dependencies that are only required during the build phase of the package [1][4]. <exec_depend>: Used for dependencies required at runtime, such as shared libraries, executables, Python modules, and launch scripts [1][4]. <build_export_depend>: Used for dependencies that are required by packages that depend on your package during their own build process [1][8]. <buildtool_depend>: Used for build-time tools, such as ament_cmake or other build systems, that are required to build your package [1][2]. <test_depend>: Used for dependencies that are only required when building or running tests [1][2]. Relationship with find_package: While package.xml manages dependencies for the ROS ecosystem (e.g., via colcon and rosdep), CMake packages still require find_package calls within the CMakeLists.txt file [5]. The package.xml ensures that the dependency is available in the environment, and find_package allows CMake to locate the specific headers, libraries, and configuration files needed for the compilation and linking process [4][5]. For example, if you depend on rclcpp, you must list it as a (or appropriate subset) in package.xml and call find_package(rclcpp REQUIRED) in your CMakeLists.txt [5].

MuJoCo XML 2D texture box geom texture coordinates top face local x y orientation
💡 Result:
In MuJoCo, using a 2D texture on a box geom results in automatic, non-uniform mapping that often causes visual stretching on four of the six faces [1][2]. The default 2D texture coordinate generator maps a 2D image to 3D space by projecting it [1][2]. For a box geom, the two faces whose normals are aligned with the Z-axis of the geom's local frame appear normal, while the other four faces (sides) appear stretched because the texture coordinates are essentially projected along the Z-axis [1][2]. Consequently, you cannot explicitly configure the 2D texture coordinates for a primitive box geom in the XML; the mapping is determined by the automatic generator [1][2]. If you require precise control over texture coordinates (e.g., to prevent stretching or orient the texture specifically on each face), you must use a mesh geom instead of a primitive box [3][4]. Mesh geoms allow you to provide explicit texture coordinates via OBJ or MSH files, which take priority over any automatic mapping mechanisms [3][5]. You can define these coordinates in an external modeling tool and export them as part of the mesh file [3][4]. For controlling the scale of the 2D texture, you can use the texrepeat attribute within the material element [1][2]. Additionally, if a 2D texture is unsuitable for your needs, consider using a cube texture, which is specifically designed to handle all sides of a box without the stretching artifacts common to 2D projections [1][2].

OpenCV CharucoBoard draw image coordinate origin corner x y orientation
💡 Result:
In OpenCV, the coordinate system for a ChArUco board is located in the board plane, centered at the bottom-left corner of the board [1][2]. The orientation is such that the X and Y axes lie within the plane of the board, and the Z axis is perpendicular to it [1][2]. Important developments to note regarding the coordinate system and orientation: 1. Incompatible Change (OpenCV 4.6.0+): As of OpenCV 4.6.0, there was a breaking change in the coordinate system [1][2]. Prior to this version, the Z-axis pointed out of the board plane [3][4][5]. In version 4.6.0 and later, the Z-axis points into the board plane [1][2]. This change affects pose estimation results [6]. 2. Axis Drawing: You can visualize this coordinate system using the cv::drawFrameAxes() function after performing pose estimation [1][2]. By convention, the axes are typically visualized as X: red, Y: green, and Z: blue [1][3]. 3. CharucoBoard::draw(): This method is used to generate an image of the board for printing [7][8]. When using this function, the board is centered within the output image, and you can specify margins and marker border sizes [3][7][5]. Note that this method is intended for generating the board pattern itself, not for performing geometric coordinate transformations of detected corners [7][9]. When working with pose estimation (cv::solvePnP), the objPoints representing the corners of the board are influenced by this Z-axis orientation: clockwise (CW) ordering of object points corresponds to the Z-axis pointing into the plane, while counter-clockwise (CCW) ordering corresponds to the Z-axis pointing out of the plane [1][2].

Pin and validate the ChArUco board-frame mapping.
The MJCF defines plate poses, but it does not define which plate corner maps to the OpenCV board origin. Document the image-to-geom axis mapping and validate it from a rendered image before using world_board or flange_board as calibration ground truth.

A simulation config for developing and validating hand-eye calibration: a UR5e on a linear rail with a wrist camera, a world-fixed ChArUco board for eye-in-hand calibration, and a wrist-mounted board watched by two fixed scene cameras for eye-to-hand.
What makes it a calibration test bench rather than another demo scene:
The config is
MOVEIT_PRO_IGNOREd until the calibration Objectives land (#20570); it launches fine when selected explicitly withmoveit_pro run -c hand_eye_calibration_sim.Verified by launching the full stack against this config (69 packages, planning ready, all three camera streams rendering in the Desktop App) and by offline MuJoCo renders of every camera at the calibration pose.
