Summary
In this chapter, we looked at the various vision sensors that can be used in Chefbot. We used Kinect and Astra in our robot and learned about OpenCV, OpenNI, PCL, and their application. We also discussed the role of vision sensors in robot navigation, the popular SLAM technique, and its application using ROS. In the next chapter, we will see the complete interfacing of the robot and learn how to perform autonomous navigation with our Chefbot.
