List of ROS Services#

This page lists all the ROS services exposed by the SDK 23.1.

Caution

Only the services contributing to the public API of the pal-sdk-23.1 are listed here.

Additional ROS services might be present on the robot, for internal purposes. They are however not part of the documented and supported robot API.

/kb/revise (documentation) Add/remove facts to/from the knowledge base using a synchronous interface.

See KnowledgeCore documentation for details.
/kb/query (documentation) Perform a simple query against the knowledge base.

See KnowledgeCore documentation for details.
/kb/sparql (documentation) Perform a complex query on the knowledge base, using the SPARQL syntax.

See KnowledgeCore documentation for details.
/kb/events (documentation) Allow to subscribe to events by providing a (set of) partially-bound triples. Calling the service returns an event id. Subscribe then to /kb/events/<id> to be notified everytime a new instance/class match the provided pattern.

See KnowledgeCore documentation for details.
/kb/about (documentation) Returns the list of triples where term is either subject, predicate or object.

See KnowledgeCore documentation for details.
/kb/lookup (documentation) Search the knowledge base for a term matching a string. The search is performed both on terms’ names and on label.

Returns the list of found terms, alongside with their type (one of instance, class, datatype_property, object_property, literal).

See KnowledgeCore documentation for details.
/kb/manage (documentation) Service to manage the knowledge base, including clearing all content and loading external ontologies.

See KnowledgeCore documentation for details.

/get_speech_duration (documentation)
/active_chatbot (documentation) Returns the chatbot that is currently running on the robot.
/wakeup_monitor/enable (documentation) Enable/disable the monitor of wake-up/sleep keywords. See Wake-up word detector for details.
/wakeup_monitor/set_wakeup_pattern (documentation) Sets a custom ‘wakeup’ pattern (C++ regular expression). See Wake-up word detector for details.
/wakeup_monitor/get_wakeup_pattern (documentation) Returns the current ‘wakeup’ pattern (C++ regular expression). See Wake-up word detector for details.
/wakeup_monitor/set_sleep_pattern (documentation) Sets a custom ‘sleep’ pattern (C++ regular expression). See Wake-up word detector for details.
/wakeup_monitor/get_sleep_pattern (documentation) Returns the current ‘sleep’ pattern (C++ regular expression). See Wake-up word detector for details.
