# Autonomous navigation of a mobile robot using ROS2 - Humble Hawksbill

- Add this alias to your preferred shell startup script _(`zsh` in my case)_

    ```zsh

    echo "alias humble=\"source /opt/ros/humble/setup.zsh\"" >> ~/.zshrc

    ```

- Source `ROS2` installation

   ```zsh

    humble

    ```

- Check that the environment is properly set up 

   ```zsh

   printenv | grep -i ros

   ```

   _You should get an output as follows, along with other environment variables:_

  

   > ROS_DISTRO=humble

    

   > ROS_PYTHON_VERSION=3

   

   > ROS_VERSION=2

The official and detailed documentation is accessible through this [link](https://docs.ros.org/en/humble/index.html).

- Build the package using `colcon` tool

    ```zsh

    colcon build --symlink-install

    ```

- Source the local setup file

    ```zsh

    source install/local_setup.zsh

    ```

- Launch the `launch` file

    ```zsh

    ros2 launch rover_ctrl rover.launch.py

    ```

- The launch file `launch_sim.launch.py` displays the robot in `gazebo` and publishes the `/robot_description` and `/scan` topics to `rviz`

    ```zsh

    ros2 launch rover_ctrl launch_sim.launch.py

    ```

- Mapping using **SLAM** toolbox 

    ```zsh

    ros2 launch rover_ctrl launch_slam.launch.py

    ```

- Localization and navigation

    ```zsh

    ros2 launch rover_ctrl launch_nav.launch.py

    ```
