ExampleHel​perRobotSi​mulator not working as intended.

I am referring to this tutorial:

Mapping with Known poses

In the first step after rosinit, when the simulation is called for i.e:

sim = ExampleHelperRobotSimulator('simpleMap');

I get an error in MATLAB saying

 Error using ExampleHelperRobotSimulator
Too many input arguments.

I am not understanding what exactly is the problem here. Can someone please help? I am using R2015a version MATLAB on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS with ROS Indigo installed.

Can anyone Help Answer this?

Answer 1

[hang yin]

I have the same problem and I'm using R2015b

Answer 2

[Walter Roberson]

ExampleHelperRobotSimulator was updated in R2016a. The versions for R2015b and earlier do not permit arguments to be passed. The tutorial for mapping from known poses was not introduced until R2016b.

why 2017b have same problem too.

Undefined function or variable 'ExampleHelperRobotSimulator'.
