Design a User-defined robot of your choice (or you can use the URDF file) and enable the LIDAR Scanner so that any obstacle placed on the path of the light scan will cut the light rays. Visualize the robot in the Gazebo workspace, and also show the demonstration in RViz. (NB: Gain knowledge on wiring URDF file and .launch file for enabling any user-defined robot to get launched in the gazebo platform.) SLAM : One of the most popular applications of ROS is SLAM(Simultaneous Localization and Mapping). The objective of the SLAM in mobile robotics is to construct and update the map of an unexplored environment with the help of the available sensors attached to the robot which will be used for exploring. URDF: Unified Robotics Description Format, URDF, is an XML specification used in academia and industry to model multibody systems such as robotic manipulator arms for manufacturing assembly lines and animatronic robots for amusement parks. URDF is especially popular with users of the Robo
This post helps you in installing nam and xgraph in ubuntu 18.04. Mandatory steps before proceeding the following installation $] sudo apt update $] sudo apt install build-essential autoconf automake libxmu-dev $] sudo apt install gcc-4.8 g++-4.8 Installing ns2 on Ubuntu 18.04 (Refer this detailed instructions) ns2 uses gcc-4.8 as c compiler and g++-4.8 as C++ Compiler ns2, nam and xgraph all these softwares were comfortable with 4.8 version so wee need to change these settings inthe Makefile.in We have to modify at three locations; 1. ns-2.35/Makefile.in 2. nam-1.15/Makefile.in 3. xgraph-12.2/Makefile.in Change as per the following in the above three files. @CC@ --> gcc-4.8 @CPP@ --> g++-4.8 ns-2.35/linkstate/ls.h line nuber 137, change erase to this->erase Set the PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH in /home/networks/.bashrc file as per the video shown below. we have installed ns2, nam and xgraph in the OS Ubuntu 18.04 Subscribe to Engineering C
