-
Be sure that your workstation is running Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial Xerus or Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahir. Ubuntu downloads can be found here.
-
If using a Virtual Machine to install Ubuntu, use the following configuration as minimum:
- 2 CPU
- 2 GB system memory
- 25 GB of free hard drive space
The Udacity provided virtual machine has ROS and Dataspeed DBW already installed, so you can skip the next two steps if you are using this.
-
Follow these instructions to install ROS
- ROS Kinetic if you have Ubuntu 16.04.
- ROS Indigo if you have Ubuntu 14.04.
-
- Use this option to install the SDK on a workstation that already has ROS installed: One Line SDK Install (binary)
-
Download the Udacity Simulator.
Build the docker image
./build-docker-image.sh
Build the GPU enabled docker image
cd build-docker-gpu
./build-docker-image.sh
Run the docker container
./run.sh
Run the GPU enabled docker container
./run_gpu.sh
Inside docker container
udacity_make
udacity_run
Connect to docker container in other terminal for debug purpose
./run.sh
Then for example: to check ROS topic list
cd ros
source devel/setup.sh
rostopic list
- Clone the project repository
git clone https://github.com/udacity/CarND-Capstone.git
- Install python dependencies
cd CarND-Capstone
pip install -r requirements.txt
- Make and run styx
cd ros
catkin_make
source devel/setup.sh
roslaunch launch/styx.launch
- Run the simulator
- Download training bag that was recorded on the Udacity self-driving car (a bag demonstraing the correct predictions in autonomous mode can be found here)
- Unzip the file
unzip traffic_light_bag_files.zip
- Play the bag file
rosbag play -l traffic_light_bag_files/loop_with_traffic_light.bag
- Launch your project in site mode
cd CarND-Capstone/ros
roslaunch launch/site.launch
- Confirm that traffic light detection works on real life images
