Programming Robots with ROS: A Practical Introduction to the Robot Operating System
Description
Want to develop novel robot applications, but don’t know how to write a
mapping or object-recognition system? You’re not alone, but you’re certainly
not without help. By combining real-world examples with valuable knowledge
from the Robot Operating System (ROS) community, this practical book provides
a set of motivating recipes for solving specific robotics use cases. Ideal for
enthusiasts, from students in robotics clubs to professional robotics
scientists and engineers, each recipe describes a complete solution using ROS
open source libraries and tools. You’ll learn how to complete tasks described
in the recipes, as well as how to configure and recombine components for other
tasks. If you’re familiar with Python, you’re ready to go. Learn fundamentals,
including key ROS concepts, tools, and patterns Program robots that perform an
increasingly complex set of behaviors, using the powerful packages in ROS See
how to easily add perception and navigation abilities to your robots Integrate
your own sensors, actuators, software libraries, and even a whole robot into
the ROS ecosystem Learn tips and tricks for using ROS tools and community
resources, debugging robot behavior, and using C++ in ROS Read more
