Description
There are many courses on ROS which provides good insights on theoretical aspects and building Robots in simulation. But, in this course, we will be discussing how to build a low cost ROS-powered autonomous robot at home from scratch. Step-by-step instructions will be given in detail on how to build the Autonomous Robot.
This course covers lessons on how to physically build a customized Robot including elements like Mechanical design, Electronic circuit assembly, software configuration, ROS navigation stack integration, Arduino integration, Software simulation, real-world navigation and a sample delivery application
By the end of this course, you will be able to achieve the following:
- Design and build your customized physical robot with autonomous navigation capability
- Create a map of your house using the lidar scanner of the robot
- Command robot to go to any accessible location on the created map
- Interact with the robot using a mobile app, joystick, keyboard, push-button, or remote computer
- Monitor robot updates via LCD, mobile app, sound, and status LEDs
- Automate delivery of small payload and return to home base
