Obstacle avoidance with Kinect #14

Closed marc-hanheide closed 10 years ago

marc-hanheide commented 11 years ago

This came out of the MAPS breakout group at the GA

[x] test the short range Kinect (Nils)
[x] find a good way to mount the Kinect (either a "neck lace" or using the two screws at the neck) (no idea why this is upside down on github...)
[x] implement obstacle avoidance using off-the-shelf components to generate a suitable costmap

I think we can close this issue now since camera, mounting and implementation are decided upon. The problems that turn up can be discussed in separate issues.
