mobile_robot_sandbox

This repo is supposed to be a sandbox where I can experiment with different control/perception algorithms that can be used with a mobile base. I am using the andino robot as the mobile platform.

Docker instructions

Instructions for setting up the Docker container can be found/adapted from here.

Launching the Gazebo Simulation

To run the Gazebo simulation:

2. In a terminal, run:

export UID=$(id -u) export GID=$(id -g); docker compose -f compose.dev.yml run development

Make sure that you have build the Docker Container via the following command:

export UID=$(id -u); export GID=$(id -g); docker compose -f compose.dev.yml build

3. When in the Docker container, build the packages via:

colcon build --symlink-install

4. Source the workspace:

source install/setup.bash

5. Run:

ros2 launch mobile_robot_algorithms robot_in_maze.launch.py

This should launch the andino robot inside of a maze.
