In Chapter 5, we used Gazebo and RViz to simulate the AI rover’s behavior. The input could be scripted or arrive through human control. We also integrated a LiDAR sensor to “visualize” obstacles in the AI rover’s vicinity. However, the AI rover’s differential drive controller plug-in and the LiDAR sensor plug-in did not communicate with each other in Chapter ...
