Note: This article by Dmitry Maslov originally appeared on Instructables<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This article will cover the process of installing ROS Melodic Morenia on Raspberry Pi 4 running the latest Debian Buster and how to use RPLIDAR AIM8<\/a> with our installation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since Debian Buster was officially released just a few weeks ago(as of moment of writing this article), there are no pre-built ROS packages to install with apt-get, which is a preferred method of installation. Hence we will need to build it from source. Trust me, it’s not that scary as it sounds. The process is described in this official tutorial<\/a>, but to build ROS Melodic on Raspberry Pi we will need to make a few modifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1: Install Dependecies and Download the Packages<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let’s start by setting up the repositories and installing the necessary dependencies<\/p>\n\n\n\n

sudo sh -c 'echo \"deb http:\/\/packages.ros.org\/ros\/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) main\" > \/etc\/apt\/sources.list.d\/ros-latest.list'<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver 'hkp:\/\/keyserver.ubuntu.com:80' --recv-key C1CF6E31E6BADE8868B172B4F42ED6FBAB17C654<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt-get update<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt-get install -y python-rosdep python-rosinstall-generator python-wstool python-rosinstall build-essential  cmake<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Then initialize rosdep and update it<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo rosdep init<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
rosdep update<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
When that’s done let’s create a dedicated catkin workspace for building ROS and move to that directory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
mkdir ~\/ros_catkin_ws<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
cd ~\/ros_catkin_ws<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Now you have two choices:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
ROS-Comm: (Bare Bones)<\/strong> installation – might be preferred choice for Raspberry Pi, since you probably will be running it headless anyway, if you are using it for a robot. Doesn’t include RVIZ, which makes installation process shorter and less hassle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Desktop Install<\/strong>: includes GUI tools, such as rqt, rviz, and robot-generic libraries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’ll go with installing Desktop Install here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
rosinstall_generator desktop --rosdistro melodic --deps --wet-only --tar > melodic-desktop-wet.rosinstall  

wstool init -j8 src melodic-desktop-wet.rosinstall<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
The command will take a few minutes to download all of the core ROS packages into the src folder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If wstool init fails or is interrupted, you can resume the download by running:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
 wstool update -j 4 -t src<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Step 2: Fix the Issues<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Picture<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Let’s install the compatible version of Assimp (Open Asset Import Library) to fix collada_urdf dependency problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
mkdir -p ~\/ros_catkin_ws\/external_src
cd ~\/ros_catkin_ws\/external_src<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
wget    http:\/\/sourceforge.net\/projects\/assimp\/files<\/a>\/assimp-3.1\/assimp-3.1.1_no_test_models.zip\/download -O assimp-3.1.1_no_test_models.zip<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
unzip assimp-3.1.1_no_test_models.zip<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
cd assimp-3.1.1<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
cmake .<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
make<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
sudo make install<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Let’s also install OGRE for rviz<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt-get install  libogre-1.9-dev<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Finally we’ll need to fix the issues with libboost. I’m using the solution from this post on stackoverflow<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“The errors during compilation are caused by the ‘boost::posix_time::milliseconds’ function which 
in newer boost versions accepts only an integer argument, but the actionlib package in ROS, gives it a float on several places. You can list all files using that function:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
find -type f -print0 | xargs -0 grep ‘boost::posix_time::milliseconds’ | cut -d: -f1 | sort -u<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Open them in your text editor and search for the 
‘boost::posix_time::milliseconds’ function call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
and replace calls like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
boost::posix_time::milliseconds(loop_duration.toSec() * 1000.0f));<\/p>\n\n\n\n
with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
boost::posix_time::milliseconds(int(loop_duration.toSec() * 1000.0f)));<\/p>\n\n\n\n
and these:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
boost::posix_time::milliseconds(1000.0f)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
boost::posix_time::milliseconds(1000)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I recommend you use nano text editor, which is simpler than VIM \ud83d\ude09 Ctrl+O is saving, Ctrl+X is exiting and Ctrl+W is searching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Next we use the rosdep tool for installing all the rest of the dependencies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro melodic -y<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Add TipAsk QuestionCommentDownload<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 3: Build and Source the Installation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Once it has completed downloading the packages and resolving the dependencies you are ready to build the catkin packages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo .\/src\/catkin\/bin\/catkin_make_isolated --install -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release --install-space \/opt\/ros\/melodic -j2<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
If the compilation process freezes(very likely, if you install the desktop version), you need to increase swap space available. By default it’s 100 MB, try increasing it to 2048 MB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Good luck! The whole compilation process takes about 1 hour, so go make some tea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now ROS Melodic should be installed on your Raspberry Pi 4. We’ll source the new installation with following command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
echo \"source \/opt\/ros\/melodic\/setup.bash\" >> ~\/.bashrc<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Try launching roscore to check if everything was successful.Add TipAsk QuestionCommentDownload<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 4: Install RPLIDAR ROS Package<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Picture<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Let’s create a separate workspace for other packages, that are not part of core ROS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From you home folder do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
mkdir -p ~\/catkin_ws\/src<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
cd ~\/catkin_ws\/<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
catkin_make<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
and source it to bashrc:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
echo \"source $HOME\/catkin_ws\/devel\/setup.bash\" >> ~\/.bashrc<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Okay, we’re ready to start installing RPLIDAR ROS package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
cd src<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
sudo git clone  https:\/\/github.com\/Slamtec\/rplidar_ros.git<\/a><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
catkin_make<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Wait for the package compilation to finish. Try launching the package to see if the compilation was successful:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
roslaunch rplidar_ros rplidar.launch<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
If it doesn’t output any errors, do a quick celebration dance(*optional).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now only the last piece is missing – since you are probably running Raspberry Pi 4 in headless mode, we can’t visualize lidar messages. For that we’ll need to set-up ROS to run on multiple machines.Add TipAsk QuestionCommentDownload<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 5: Set Up ROS to Run on Multiple Machines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Picture<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
For this part you will need a Ubuntu 18.04 computer with ROS Melodic installed. Since it’s Ubuntu ROS can be simply installed using apt-get as described in this tutorial<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After you have working ROS installation both on Raspberry Pi and your desktop machine, check the IP addresses of both machines. They need to be on the same network!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Run roscore on your desktop computer and export ROS_MASTER_URI<\/p>\n\n\n\n
roscore<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
export ROS_MASTER_URI=http:\/\/[your-desktop-machine-ip]:11311<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Next on Raspberry PI execute<\/p>\n\n\n\n
export ROS_MASTER_URI=http:\/\/[your-desktop-machine-ip]:11311<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
export ROS_IP=[your-desktop-machine-ip]<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
and launch RPILIDAR launch file<\/p>\n\n\n\n
roslaunch rplidar_ros rplidar.launch<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
If it launches successfully, check the topics present on your desktop machine with rostopic list<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you can see \/ scan mesages, everything works as it supposed to work. Then launch RVIZ on your desktop machine, add Laser Scan messages and choose \/scan topic. You will also need to change fixed frame to \/laser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Voila!Add TipAsk QuestionCommentDownload<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 6: Done!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This guide can be a first step towards building your ROS robot on top of new Raspberry Pi 4. We have installed ROS Melodic and prepared the installation for running headless and connecting to our desktop machine over wireless network for remote control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Next steps are dependent on what type of robot you want to build. You can add motors and encoders for odometry, stereo camera for Visual SLAM and all sorts of other exciting and useful things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
