Welcome to the ROS Tutorials repository, created and maintained by Binbasri-in. This repository is your go-to resource for getting started with the Robot Operating System (ROS), alongside introductory guides to OpenCV. It is designed for individuals looking to step into the world of robotics, providing clear instructions on installing ROS, running simple demos, and leveraging OpenCV in Python for image processing tasks.
The Robot Operating System (ROS) offers a comprehensive framework to develop complex robot software systems. It provides tools, libraries, and conventions that facilitate constructing robot functionality from individual components. This repository also introduces OpenCV and Python, two powerful tools for robotics programming, focusing on image processing applications.
To kickstart your journey with ROS and OpenCV, ensure you meet the following prerequisites and follow the setup instructions.
- A Linux-based operating system (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS recommended for ROS Noetic compatibility)
- Basic familiarity with terminal commands
- Some programming knowledge in Python
This repository is structured into distinct sections to streamline your learning experience:
- ROS Installation Guide: Step-by-step instructions to install ROS on your system.
working_with_ROS/Installation - ROS Simple Demos: Practical demos to explore ROS basics, including topics, nodes, and communication.
working_with_ROS/ROS_basics - OpenCV with Python: Introduction to using OpenCV for image processing in Python. Learn how to manipulate images, detect objects, and integrate OpenCV with ROS.
