Abstract: A robot may employ different techniques and control methods based on system requirements. Robot operating system (ROS) is a widely used open source software architecture platform for robot control. In this study, a mobile robot control architecture is designed based on the ros_control implementation mechanism. Using different parameters in configuration files and customized hardware interface protocols, the differential drive control of mobile robots can be adjusted to suit different hardware configurations.

Key words: mobile robot, ROS, ros_control, differential drive control model
