[Solved] SLAM using Astra Camera

[aiubian]

I am trying to create SLAM using Astra camera in ROSbot 2.0 with no luck. Will there be any tutorial in husarion tutorial for SLAM using the camera or is there any good repository for this one. So far I have found this link:

https://github.com/yzqin/rgbdslam

But found out this library is only for the below requirement.

any suggestion?

Thanks in advance.

Hello aiubian,

We do not have any tutorials for SLAM based on Astra camera, also we do not have it scheduled in near future.

For preforming SLAM with Astra camera, I would suggest you, to use rtabmap_ros instead of rgbdslam. The rtabmap_ros is much more actively maintained and can be installed through apt, thus it should be easier to use it.

Łukasz

Dear Łukasz,

Thanks for your suggestions. Is there any BibTeX to cite ROSbot in the paper? Our publication is on the way and we want to cite ROSbot in our paper as we have used ROSbot in the implementation of the paper’s idea.

Thanks in advance.

There are no publications regarding ROSbots in terms of scientific paper.
Proper citation would be link to ROSbot’s manual:

@misc{rosbot2husarion,
   Author = {Jarema Radosław, Mitka Łukasz, Nowak Dominik, Szantula Szymon, Zieliński Michał, Zwiercan Hubert},
   Title = {ROSbot manual},
   Howpublished = {\url{https://husarion.com/manuals/rosbot-manual/}},
   Note = {accessed YYYY-MM-DD},
   Year = 2017
}

Regards,
Łukasz
