Setting up a quadrotor for obstacle avoidance

Postby ragnar » Tue Jul 20, 2021 9:18 am

Hi there,
I'm fairly new to the Argos and I'm starting to get the basics. The examples are great and I understood a lot from reading them. I'm now trying to set an environment with different types of robots present in the experiment and I was wondering how can I set up a quadrotor same as a footbot for obstacle avoidance. I mean I don't know what type of sensor and actuator to use in order to create the controller.
I would appreciate a bit of guidance on that from anyone.

The eye-bot is a drone with a proximity sensor. It is called eyebot_proximity, and to know how to use it check the output of argos3 -q eyebot_proximity.

Start from this example to see how to run the eye-bot and the foot-bot together.
I made ARGoS.
