Design, build and simulate complex robots using Robot Operating
System and master its out-of-the-box functionalities About This
Book * Develop complex robotic applications using ROS for
interfacing robot manipulators and mobile robots with the help of
high end robotic sensors * Gain insights into autonomous navigation
in mobile robot and motion planning in robot manipulators *
Discover the best practices and troubleshooting solutions everyone
needs when working on ROS Who This Book Is For If you are a
robotics enthusiast or researcher who wants to learn more about
building robot applications using ROS, this book is for you. In
order to learn from this book, you should have a basic knowledge of
ROS, GNU/Linux, and C++ programming concepts. The book will also be
good for programmers who want to explore the advanced features of
ROS. What You Will Learn * Create a robot model of a Seven-DOF
robotic arm and a differential wheeled mobile robot * Work with
motion planning of a Seven-DOF arm using MoveIt! * Implement
autonomous navigation in differential drive robots using SLAM and
AMCL packages in ROS * Dig deep into the ROS Pluginlib, ROS
nodelets, and Gazebo plugins * Interface I/O boards such as
Arduino, Robot sensors, and High end actuators with ROS *
Simulation and motion planning of ABB and Universal arm using ROS
Industrial * Explore the ROS framework using its latest version In
Detail The area of robotics is gaining huge momentum among
corporate people, researchers, hobbyists, and students. The major
challenge in robotics is its controlling software. The Robot
Operating System (ROS) is a modular software platform to develop
generic robotic applications. This book discusses the advanced
concepts in robotics and how to program using ROS. It starts with
deep overview of the ROS framework, which will give you a clear
idea of how ROS really works. During the course of the book, you
will learn how to build models of complex robots, and simulate and
interface the robot using the ROS MoveIt motion planning library
and ROS navigation stacks. After discussing robot manipulation and
navigation in robots, you will get to grips with the interfacing
I/O boards, sensors, and actuators of ROS. One of the essential
ingredients of robots are vision sensors, and an entire chapter is
dedicated to the vision sensor, its interfacing in ROS, and its
programming. You will discuss the hardware interfacing and
simulation of complex robot to ROS and ROS Industrial (Package used
for interfacing industrial robots). Finally, you will get to know
the best practices to follow when programming using ROS. Style and
approach This is a simplified guide to help you learn and master
advanced topics in ROS using hands-on examples.
