Summary
This team’s project, Intelligent Voice-Controlled Mobile Manipulator, transforms a TurtleBot4 and MyCobot robotic arm into an intelligent, multi-modal robot. Using ROS 2, the system integrates live camera feeds, YOLOv8-based object detection, LiDAR-based obstacle mapping, and real-time IMU tracking. Voice commands guide the robot’s navigation and future manipulation tasks, creating a powerful platform for autonomous interaction. The mobile base handles navigation and perception, while the soon-to-be-mounted MyCobot arm will enable object manipulation, making it a fully integrated intelligent robotic system.
