Mapping #29

Open Carter90 opened 4 years ago

We should defiantly start thinking about mapping. The Cabrillo map is in c++ and is very much built for the Swarmie, so it would be better to see what Off the shelf has to offer.

So post examples you think are relevant:

Replace rgbd_sync nodelet with stereo_sync

Is the ROS Gmapping node a good candidate for this? http://wiki.ros.org/gmapping

It would be pretty simple to integrate this node into the scoot.launch file, and with recent additions of the point cloud topic I believe we would have all of the sensor data this node needs to run.

That being said, I don't know if this issue is deprecated because other members are working on this topic as well?
