Robotics – Go Chase It

Description

In this robotics simulation a custom *mobile robot* chases a white ball in an office building, which gets moved by the user in the environment to different places. The simulation gets performed in gazebo. The camera attached to the robot reads visual data to determine if there is a white ball or not. The Lidar laser scanner gets used to map the environment. The interactions of the robot are implemented using ROS-Kinetic and C++. To track what the robot is sensing the 3D visualization tool Rviz tool for ROSis used.
