Mission

Project Name: Applying Navigation System on our Zetabot

• This mission is a group project.
• Construct a map within your team.
• Navigate the contructed map with the Zetabot as a team.

Constructing a Map (as a Team)

For our navigation mission, we we hold a cooperative mission with other teams.

• For each team, 3 map panels will be given.

• As a team try to arrange the panels so that there is a clear starting and finishing zone. For example:

  

Mapping the Constructed Map

Place the Zetabot on the starting location of the map.

Mapping

• This will start the mapping simulation. Using SLAM method, the robot will utilize its LIDAR sensors as well as multiple odometry sensors to map out its immediate surroundings.

• By using the controller, move the Zetabot around the constructed map to learn its surroundings.

  

Executing Navigation

Place the Zetabot in the starting position.

• Click on Start Nav Goal and click the desired location and drag the curser to set which direction the robot should face once it reaches the said location.

  

Team Competition

• With other team members, construct a large map with starting and finishing position. Example:

  

• Team by team, execute the navigation task with your Zetabot.
