Need navigator code #6

Closed dfarrell07 closed 11 years ago

dfarrell07 commented 11 years ago

Currently, no one is working on the navigator. Someone should pick this up.

I spent a fair amount of time last night thinking about nav. Still trying to learn about this domain and how to go about solving the problem, not close to writing code.

dfarrell07 commented 11 years ago

My lack of tangible deliverable for nav is pissing me off. Since I was totally new to local planning, global planning, ROS and merging C++ and Python, I'm having to do a lot of background learning before I can produce something useful. Know that I'm making progress and am much closer to a solution, even if working code is still over the horizon.

As the guy still struggling with localization and all the related concepts... just wanted to say I understand. =)

I'm still not sure I'm working toward the right solutions half the time. If you ever need to bounce ideas off someone, don't be afraid to ask. If nothing else, I'm fascinating by what you're learning on the subject.

Per today's meeting, I'm going to focus on setting up basic message Python functions that take commands like "move 2cm forwards" and passes that to comm. This is to get some basic message passing setup between packages quickly, without doing the hard work of getting global and local nav working.

Since I'm well past the scope of this issue, I'm going to close it and raise any more specific issues that come up in dedicated issue trackers.
