The navigation system for omnidirectional wheel robot in real world

DiffBot is an autonomous 2wd differential drive robot using ROS Noetic on a Raspberry Pi 4 B. With its SLAMTEC Lidar and the ROS Control hardware interface it's capable of navigating in an environment using the ROS Navigation stack and making use of SLAM algorithms to create maps of unknown environments.

[IEEE T-RO 2023] A modularized multi-robot SLAM system with elevation mapping and a costmap converter for easy navigation. Different odometry and loop closure algorithms can be easily integrated into the system.

This package performs outdoor GPS waypoint navigation using move_base, robot_localization, gmapping and others. It can navigate while building a map, avoiding obstacles, and can navigate continuously between each goal.

GeRoNa (Generic Robot Navigation) is a modular robot navigation framework, that bundles path planning and path following (including obstacle detection) and manages communication between the individual modules. It is designed to be easily extensible for new tasks and robot models.
