Welcome to my Activity Log!!! My Research topic is " Co-operative mappingg by using a swarm of sensors". The first target to achieve is to build up knowledge about using Ubuntu and ROS kinetics.
Installation
Ubuntu seems new to me as i always worked on window versions of operating systems. So for me task 1 was to install Ubuntu and make myself familiar to its working. When i started Ubuntu installation, i had to face problem because my system was not ready to accept different operating system. It started screaming out loud to warn me but i keep going. After 3 failures i became successful in Ubuntu installation over the cost of data in my hard drive.
Installing ROS
Next task was to install ROS kinetics. Installing ROS Kinetics was not difficult after watching few tutorials on you tube.
Learning ROS
Use ROS Tutorials
How to add a new Package in workspace (27-06-2017)
Insert non-formatted text here
$ cd catkin_ws // go in workspace $ cd src //go in source directory $ git clone https://github.com/ros-drivers/usb_cam.git // download package /catkin_ws$ catkin_make //go in workspace and run catkin_make $ source devel/setup.bash // run it $roslaunch usb_cam usb_cam-test.launch // to launch package

Interfacing 3D Camera
http://wiki.ros.org/realsense_camera https://01.org/developerjourney/recipe/intel-realsense-robotic-development-kit
Working with Lidar
Read this tutorial
http://wiki.ros.org/hokuyo_node/Tutorials/UsingTheHokuyoNode
https://github.com/ut-ims-robotics/tutorials/wiki/Navigation-stack
For Lidar
first run roscore then hokuyo_node after it tf function for tf function rosrun tf static_transform_publisher 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 map my_frame 100

Then run rviz rosrun rviz rviz
To install Turtlebot Simulator
Initially i was trying to install turlebot simulator for Kinetic but it was not successful then i used this link and followed instructions. https://bitbucket.org/damienjadeduff/456_kinetic_turtlebot/src/c1860e0b451c2c4c3ba2785150f41f932df7c7fd?at=master&fileviewer=file-view-default
