Simulation of camera

Hi,

I had a few questions -
1. What is the a sensor to simulate camera (depth and/or RGB) ?
2. The current proximilty sensor gives 16 output values. Most lidars give 512 output values. Is there a way to increase the resolution of the proximilty sensor in argos ?
3. Can I import enviroments/layout in argos? Currently I make the complete environment in .argos file by using boxes and cylinders.

Thanks and Regards
Aakriti

Hello Aakriti,
What is the a sensor to simulate camera (depth and/or RGB) ?
RGB cameras can be simulated with the omnidirectional camera (on the foot-bot) and with the frontal perpective camera (on the khepera IV).
The current proximilty sensor gives 16 output values. Most lidars give 512 output values. Is there a way to increase the resolution of the proximilty sensor in argos ?
I think your best bet is to use the Khepera IV robot. Full package here: https://github.com/ilpincy/argos3-kheperaiv

We currently don't have an explicit way to do that, but it wouldn't be hard to do. Just lack of time on my side.
