Project: Localization and detection of landmarks for supporting UAV navigation

Bachelor semester project 2 : part I

Visualizing data with ROS

  1. install ROS, understanding topic, publishers and subscribers

  2. Rviz tool with http://www.cvlibs.net/datasets/kitti/raw_data.php

  3. Implement nodes from prerecorded rosbag containing images, localization and other sensor data and display nodes in a more advanced way.
