Introduce
Advantech Robotic Suite offers five main categories of ROS2 services specifically designed for AMR applications, helping users accelerate development. These services include a variety of applications, algorithms and reference documentation to support efficient integration and deployment.
Planning
| Application | Description | Reference |
|---|---|---|
| Waypoint Following | Within Nav2, waypoint following is a feature that allows a robot to autonomously navigate through a series of specified points (waypoints) in sequence. It leverages the navigation stack’s planning and control capabilities to ensure accurate and reliable traversal of a given route. | Doc |
| Path Planning | Path planning in Nav2 refers to the process where the navigation stack computes a feasible and efficient path from the robot’s current location to its target destination. This process considers the environment’s obstacles and robot’s kinematics, using built-in planning algorithms. | Doc |
Visual Perception
| Application | Description | Reference |
|---|---|---|
| Barcode Recognition | Basic ROS2 wrapper for the zbar barcode reader library. Reads image stream from image topic, and outputs detected barcodes to barcode topic. Works with 1D and 2D barcodes. | Github |
Sensing Perception
| Application | Description | Reference |
|---|---|---|
| IMU Tools | A set of utilities for processing and visualizing data from Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs), which provide orientation, acceleration, and angular velocity information. | Github |
SLAM
| Application | Description | Reference |
|---|---|---|
| RTAB-Map | Real-Time Appearance-Based Mapping (RTAB-Map) is a graph-based SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) algorithm that creates 3D maps using visual, depth, and sensor data. | Github |
| Cartographer | A real-time SLAM algorithm developed by Google that enables robots to build 2D and 3D maps of their environment using laser and odometry data. | Doc Github |
| SLAM Toolbox | A collection of SLAM algorithms and tools for mapping and localization, supporting online and offline map building, pose-graph optimization, and loop closure. | Github |
| LIO-SAM | Lidar-Inertial Odometry via Smoothing and Mapping (LIO-SAM) is a state-of-the-art SLAM system that fuses LiDAR and IMU data to produce accurate, high-frequency odometry and maps. | Github |
| Application | Description | Reference |
|---|---|---|
| Navigation 2 | A ROS2 framework that provides a complete set of navigation features, including localization, path planning, and control, for autonomous robot movement in dynamic environments. | Doc Github |
| Robot Localization | A ROS2 package that fuses data from various sensors (e.g., GPS, IMU, odometry) to provide accurate state estimation of a robot’s position and orientation. | Doc Github |
| Hybrid A* | Hybrid A* is one of the path planning algorithms integrated in Nav2. It enhances traditional A* by considering the robot's motion constraints and continuous state space, making it suitable for robots that require smooth and realistic paths, especially non-holonomic vehicles. | Doc |
| Dijkstra | Dijkstra’s algorithm, available within Nav2’s planning plugins, is used to find the shortest path in a grid map from start to goal. It guarantees the optimal solution and serves as a robust global planner for route generation in the navigation stack. | Doc |
| Obstacle Avoidance | Obstacle avoidance in Nav2 is handled by its local planner and costmap modules. These components work together to detect obstacles in real time and dynamically adjust the robot’s path, ensuring safe navigation even in changing environments. | Doc |
