Summary
This team’s project builds an indoor robot that can move to a goal location by itself. The team chose to use a TurtleBot 4 with sensors like LiDAR, IMU, and a camera, all connected to a Raspberry Pi running ROS2. An ESP32 device sends wireless goal locations to the robot. Using sensor data and commands, the robot maps the area, plans its path, and navigates safely. The goal is to show how combining sensors and real-time feedback can improve robot autonomy using simple, low-cost parts.
