Book DescriptionIn this day and age, robotics has been gaining a
lot of traction in various industries where consistency and
perfection matter. Automation is achieved via robotic applications
and various platforms that support robotics. The Robot Operating
System (ROS) is a modular software platform to develop generic
robotic applications. This book focuses on the most stable release
of ROS (Kinetic Kame), discusses advanced concepts, and effectively
teaches you programming using ROS. We begin with aninformative
overview of the ROS framework, which will give you a clear idea of
how ROS works. During the course of this book, you'll learn to
build models of complex robots, and simulate and interface the
robot using the ROS MoveIt! motion planning library and ROS
navigation stacks. Learn to leverage several ROS packages to
embrace your robot models. After covering robot manipulation and
navigation, you'll get to grips with the interfacing I/O boards,
sensors, and actuators of ROS. Vision sensors are a key component
of robots, and an entire chapter is dedicated to the vision sensor
and image elaboration, its interface in ROS and programming. You'll
also understand the hardware interface and simulation of complex
robots to ROS and ROS Industrial. At the end of this book, you'll
discover the best practices to follow when programming using ROS.
What you will learn Create a robot model with a seven-DOF robotic
arm and a differential wheeled mobile robot Work with Gazebo and
V-REP robotic simulator Implement autonomous navigation in
differential drive robots using SLAM and AMCL packages Explore the
ROS Pluginlib, ROS nodelets, and Gazebo plugins Interface I/O
boards such as Arduino, robot sensors, and high-end actuators
Simulate and motion plan an ABB and universal arm using ROS
Industrial Explore the latest version of the ROS framework Work
with the motion planning of a seven-DOF arm using MoveIt! Who this
book is forIf you are a robotics enthusiast or researcher who want
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 is also excellent for programmers who want to explore the
advanced features of ROS.
