How to Measure Robot Movement Open Class

What you will learn in this Open Class

In this open class, you'll explore various methods for tracking a robot’s movement in dynamic environments.

You will learn:

Odometry – Calculating movement using wheel encoders.
RGB Camera – Estimating motion from image analysis.
Twist Commands – Inferring movement from control inputs.
Laser Scanning – Using LIDAR for indirect movement tracking.
Sensor Fusion – Combining data from multiple sources.
ROS Topics – Key topics for movement tracking (/odom, /cmd_vel, /scan, /camera/image_raw).
Practical Applications – Importance in real-world robotics like navigation and automation.

Robot Used: BotBox
