Robot Operating system是在機器人研究以及 業(yè)界設(shè)計、仿真和打造原型機器人方面*為廣泛使用 的軟件框架之一。運用ROS知識實現(xiàn)機器人比人們想 象中的要難得多，但是本書可以為創(chuàng)建你自己的機器 人提供幫助。
朗坦·約瑟夫著的《ROS機器人項目(影印版)(英 文版)》包含14個ROS機器人項目．不需要太多硬件就 可以做出原型。全書從ROS介紹和安裝過程開始。討 論相關(guān)基礎(chǔ)知識之后，你將被帶入瀏覽偉大項目的旅 程，比如構(gòu)建自動駕駛汽車、自主移動機器人以及運 用深度學(xué)習(xí)和ROS相結(jié)合的圖像識別等。你可以從中 找到面向初學(xué)者、中級學(xué)者和專家等各個層次人士的 ROS機器人應(yīng)用。
本書是那些真正想要在機器人領(lǐng)域大展拳腳的狂 熱愛好者的*佳伴侶。
