# Atreus for ROS 2 - Jazzy



This package contains a mutlipurpose four-wheeled skid-steer drive robot equipped with sensors such as a Depth Camera, LiDAR, GPS, and an IMU.
Installation
------------
### 1. Dev Container (Recommended)
* Install the [Dev Containers](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode-remote.remote-containers) extension for Visual Studio Code.
* Open the repository in Visual Studio Code and select `Reopen in Container` from the Command Palette (`Ctrl+Shift+P`).
This will build the development container with all the necessary dependencies.
### 2. Native Installation
* Clone the repository for responsible for driving the robot using arrow keys:
```bash
cd $ROS_WS/src/
git clone git@github.com:leander-dsouza/key_teleop_ros.git
```
* Install all the required ROS related dependencies:
```bash
rosdep install --from-paths $ROS_WS/src --ignore-src -r -y
```
* Build the packages:
```bash
colcon build --symlink-install --packages-select atreus key_teleop_ros
```
Tutorial
--------
### 1. RViz Joint Visualization
* Launch the robot in RViz:
```bash
ros2 launch atreus rviz.launch.py
```

### 2. Teleoperation in Gazebo
* Launch the robot in Gazebo:
```bash
ros2 launch atreus gazebo.launch.py
```
* Open a new terminal and run the teleoperation node:
```bash
ros2 run key_teleop_ros key_drive
```
Use the arrow keys to control the robot's movement.

### 3. Mapping
* Launch the robot in Gazebo with the SLAM Toolbox:
```bash
ros2 launch atreus slam_toolbox.launch.py
```
This will start the mapping process using **SLAM Toolbox**.
* Open a new terminal and run the teleoperation node:
```bash
ros2 run key_teleop_ros key_drive
```
This will allow you to map the environment by driving the robot around.

* In order to save the map, open a new terminal and run the following command:
```bash
ros2 run nav2_map_server map_saver_cli -f my_map
```
This will save the map to the current directory.
### 4. Navigation
* Launch the robot in Gazebo with the Navigation Stack:
```bash
ros2 launch atreus nav2.launch.py
```
* Set the initial pose of the robot in RViz by clicking on the `2D Pose Estimate` button:
