Kinetic Installation Arbotix Simulator

At the time of learning to use the Arbotix simulator, due to the use of the latest version, many other web site commands, including sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-arbotix-*, did not install successfully

Next try to compile with git download source:

Download Source:

git clone https://github.com/vanadiumlabs/arbotix_ros.git

Then create a new/SRC under the/arbotix_ros folder, cut all other files to/SRC, and then use Catkin_make to compile the source code

Prompt for error at this time:

Error:cannot launch node of type [Arbotix_python/arbotix_driver]: Arbotix_python
ROS Path [0]=/opt/ros/kinetic/share/ros
ROS Path [1]=/home/xcy/catkin_lml/src
ROS Path [2]=/home/xcy/catkin_syl/src
ROS Path [3]=/home/xcy/catkin_ws/src
ROS Path [4]=/opt/ros/kinetic/share

The reason is not to add a search path;

Add: Source ~/download_code/arbotix_ros/devel/setup.bash in the. bashrc file

The specific path needs to be modified according to the location of your download;

And then it succeeds with the compilation.
