Complete List of Things To Get Us To Competition (For Software) #64

Open TheDash opened 10 years ago

TheDash commented 10 years ago

This is a rehash of the papers in the EDC:

To qualify, what software has to do is improve following and improve manipulation. I'll discuss what we need to do in order to improve following (which is nice, we aren't blocked by any engineering/physical components in this route) and manipulation.

Improving following pre-requisites:

  1. Get face recognition node up and running with the entire system (Issue #66)
  2. The kinect tracker must work. This solution is intractable without a proper tracking system. (Issue #38)

The navigation stack must be up and running. This means two things 3.1 Map generated (which means, we must also have teleoperation working) (Issue #49) 3.1.1 Teleoperation (Issue #49) 3.2 Odometry works (Issue #49) 3.3 Integration of our system with navigation (Issue #49)

Once the pre-requisites are done:

  1. Adding the required commands (look at rulebook for followme) and the required names that the robot must know (Issue #67)
  2. Create the follower script (Mike, was this over-written when you re-wrote the follower? Perhaps we can look back through some commits and copy and paste it) with new face-learning capability and kinect-tracker capability. (Issue #68)

Updated: The kinect tracker now works.

@TheDash Sorry I didn't see this to more recently. Don't just say Mike, use @toxicseaweed to get me to address something.

Here's the answer to your question from two days ago. The follower script was modified and left in the talos_follower package. As we discussed earlier today I moved this into a backup folder and made sure it doesn't compile. It is possible to go back and get an old version of the file. Hell, you can even see the first version of the file using git.

Also, what do you mean the kinect tracker now works? I only have it working on my laptop and I'm trying to find a way to safely set it up on the talos tower without destroying everything in the process.

The Kinect tracker works for someone and now there are TF trees/visualizations of it, that was the objective of the issue. That's why I closed #38. A new issue should be made for getting it integrated with our system.

W00t!! Map generation works booysssssssss chyea chyea. This was just moving the base/lidar around by hand. Now to start the nav stack fun,
