About the project

On this page you can find a summary about this project

This project is about navigating a four-wheeled robot in real life, while it receives fake sensor information from a simulation, acting as if the objects in the simulated world were real. This aims to give you an example about how HIL solutions can be set up and worked on using the Asimovo platform. Furthermore, you can also use this project to gain information on how to interface ROS1 robots with ROS2 systems.

The operating system of the robot runs ROS1 Noetic, while the other software in this solution are implemented with the use of ROS2 Foxy packages.

This project was created with the use of the Husarion ROSbot 2, ROS2 Foxy, Gazebo Fortress and the Asimovo platform. The codebase is available here.

The computer used for this tutorial had Ubuntu 22.04 installed, had an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card as well as an AMD Ryzen 7 6800HS CPU and 16GB RAM.
