OpenSoTとは

イタリア工科大学（Istituto italiano di tecnologia）発の、ロボットの全身制御用のライブラリ。「エンドエフェクタの位置を制御するタスク」、「重心を支持領域内に収めるタスク」など、ロボットの制御に必要な支持を「タスク」として与えてやることができる。それぞれのタスクには重要度を割り当てることができる。 DARPA Robotics Challengeでのイタリアチーム(Walk-manロボットを使用)のソフトウェアにも使われていた模様。

GitHubのOpenSoT-superbuildの指示に大体したがっていけばよいが、makeすると、途中で

とエラーが出てコンパイルができない問題があった。RT_LIBRARYが曲者っぽかたのでググってたら見つけたQ&Aを参考に、/opt/ros/kinetic/share/catkin/cmake/tools/rt.cmake内の、RT_LIBRARYについてのチェックするコードを消してみたらうまく行った。

if(NOT (APPLE OR WIN32 OR MINGW OR ANDROID))
  if (${CMAKE_VERSION} VERSION_LESS 2.8.4)
    # cmake later than 2.8.0 appears to have a better find_library
    # that knows about the ABI of the compiler.  For lucid we just
    # depend on the linker to find it for us.
    set(RT_LIBRARY rt CACHE FILEPATH "Hacked find of rt for cmake < 2.8.4")
  #else()
  #  find_library(RT_LIBRARY rt)
  #  assert_file_exists(${RT_LIBRARY} "RT Library")
  endif()
  #message(STATUS "RT_LIBRARY: ${RT_LIBRARY}")
endif()

これで、makeもsudo make installも通るようになった。
