PLUTO PROJECT
Embedded SYSTEM
The Plutobot is a 2WD ground bot based on a fork of linorobot, an open platform for ground robot (2WD, 4WD, Meccano, Ackermann) that provides a convenient ROS environment for SLAM (Self localization and mapping) and autonomous navigation.
The features added to the original linorobot are:
- ESC and Brusheless motor controller with hall sensor RPM encoder
- Pluto ROS node manager
- Webapp
ROS ENVIRONMENT
A quick start to connect to the robot, assuming you have a working ROS environment setup, is to follow the quick start in the pluto wiki.
