Real time movement of URDF model on browser.

[Prasun Pallav]

I am using turtle bot and want to visualize its movement on browser. I can see the URDF model on my browser but it is not at all moving as I move the turtle bot in the environment. Please suggest what can be the issue.

My first thought is that the robot is only being visualized in base coordinates.  It is likely that a map is needed, where the pose of the robot's based is expressed in the map frame.

Actually, I am localizing it using amcl in turtlebot_navigation and I can see the exact position of the bot on the map using rviz. Same visualization I want to do on browser using ros3djs but am not able to view it. In the browser I can see the map and the URDF model of turtlebot but it is not moving as the turtlebot moves in the map environment.

Hi Prasun,

Given your response and without seeing your setup directly, I am pretty stumped why you would have this issue.  Maybe the best course of action is to file an issue on the repository.  Just be sure to include enough information for everyone to be able to reproduce your issue.

Thanks,
