Simulation Calibration Matrix

[RobertVillalba]

When using a simulated robot the option for the calibration matrix is grayed out and thus can not be modified. The issue this creates is that since the coordinates come from pixels the Y is actually flipped from what we would normally call the positive Y direction. Could this be fixed or could we get access to modify this matrix so we can put a -1 for the Y?

is this for the rotation being the wrong direction?

Just the Y orientation as one is looking at it on the map.

The code that grays out the Calibrate button is https://github.com/LTLMoP/LTLMoP/blob/development/src/lib/configEditor.py#L442
As the comment says, "If this robot has a pre-defined calibration matrix, don't allow for calibration.”
I think you should just set a default calibration matrix in the .robot file for basicsim that has whatever transformation you want.
Note that things might get a little confusing because you’ll be basically looking at the map from underneath now.
