Learning Robotics with Python: Autonomous Robot Design
This text primarily concerns the development of an autonomous mobile robot named ChefBot, outlining its design, simulation, construction, and software integration. The materials detail the use of Robot Operating System (ROS) for programming and Gazebo for simulation, covering aspects from basic ROS concepts and differential robot kinematics to the specifics of hardware selection, circuit design using a Tiva C LaunchPad, and interfacing with various sensors and actuators. Furthermore, the resources explore vision sensors, the application of OpenCV and PCL, SLAM for mapping, and the creation of a graphical user interface using Qt and Python for robot control. Ultimately, the goal is to guide the reader through the entire process of creating a functional autonomous robot. DISCLAIMER: As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
