A Hackathon project for a line-seeking trolley based on ROS platform.
Simulator documentation
In order to execute this simulator run the following steps:
- Uncompress simulator.zip and open a terminal inside catkin_ws
- Execute the following lines of code
catkin_make source devel/setup.bash roslaunch puzzlebot_world puzzlebot_simple_world.launch - Open a new terminal and run
source devel/setup.bash
Now you can use this terminal to interact with the simulator. Keep in mind that this instruction needs to be executed whenever you open a new terminal. Alternatively, you can add it to your .bashrc file.
- The warm-up challenge is to develop a line following algorithm, to do so you can retrieve images from the topic /camera/image_raw, read wheel velocities with /wr and /wl and send velocity commands with /cmd_vel
