Butler : A framework for Visual/Sparse-SLAM based Mobile Robots

Travis CI Status License

Overview

Butler is a platform independent framework for mobile robotics, deep learning and simulated algorithms for small UGVs and differential drive robots (such as Kobuki and Jackal). The repository supports an array of algorithms aiming at mapping, localization, perception, and control in a variety of simulated environments.

Requirements

The minimum requirements to get started with Butler are:

  • OS : Ubuntu 16.04+, Windows 7+, Mac OS
  • Browser : Google Chrome, Firefox
  • Docker

Deep Learning Dependencies (optional):

  • Nvidia GPU
  • Nvidia Driver 418+

Installation

Please see the installation chapter in the documentation for installing and running the environments.

Quick Run

For a quick test run of butler, you can follow these steps after building the ROS/Gazebo container as listed in installation. Once you've built the container, run it using . run ros. This will start a VNC session in your browser at localhost:6080. Open a new terminal in that VNC session Home > System Tools > LX Terminal and type in roslaunch butler robot.launch and voila, you should be able to see the small Kobuki robot in it. For a more detailed run through, please see the tutorial chapter in the documentation.

butler's Issues

Change clearpath jackal description to read from user input as args instead of optenv

Summary
The jackal description currently reads environment variables to set it's sensor configuration.

Any solution in mind?
Change this to reading from a config.yaml instead. Start out with changing all if (optenv) to if(arg), and those args can be set inside the launch file, or a source script can be run on host using that.

Additional context
Replace all occurences like these

<xacro:if value="$(optenv JACKAL_LASER 0)">

Setup CI

Summary
Setup CI for the repository : can be any one buildkite/ travis/ circle/ jenkins (whichever is free)
