Hands-On ROS for Robotics Programming

Battery level

The following command reads and displays the current battery voltage. It should be above 9 V for GoPiGo3 to work properly. When the batteries are not charged enough, you will lose the Wi-Fi connection with the robot and you will have to recharge them or replace them with new batteries:

print("Battery voltage : ", GPG.get_voltage_battery() )OUTPUT ===> Battery voltage : 9.114

Next, we will look at hardware information and voltage levels.
