Our autonomous ground vehicle uses Frontier Based exploration to navigate and map unknown environments. Equipped with sensors, it can avoid obstacles and make real-time decisions. It has potential applications in search and rescue, agriculture, and logistics, and represents an important step forward in autonomous ground vehicle development.

Suggestion to previous issue #1 - FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'src/autonomous_exploration/config/params.yaml' #4

Closed booth-algo closed 5 months ago

I encountered a similar problem as described in Issue #1. The params.yaml file is missing from the src/autonomous_exploration/config directory, which results in a FileNotFoundError when running the script.

The issue is that when cloning this repository into ros_ws/src, there is an extra layer (folder) which includes the autonomous_exploration package along with the README and licensing.

Hence when it tries to look for the param file, it can't find it because the path is src/ROS2-FrontierBaseExplorationForAutonomousRobot/autonomous_exploration instead of src/autonomous_exploration.

So other than a path change in the control.py file, you can also move the autonomous_exploration to under src (out of the folder) such that the it matches the expected hierarchy.

Hope this helps someone in the future.
