In this Open Class, we will explore how to compute a robot’s odometry based solely on its laser data.

You will learn:
✏️ What is odometry and why it’s crucial in robotics?
✏️ How to calculate a robot’s odometry using laser data
✏️ Practical examples using simulated and real BotBox robots

#Odometry is a fundamental concept in robotics, serving as the means to estimate a robot’s position and movement by analyzing sensor data. There are different methods to compute a robot’s odometry, depending on the sensors available.

============================
ROS Developers Open Class, a weekly free live-streaming event by The Construct AI, aims to make robotics accessible to all.

Each session provides a ROS-based project (referred to as ROSJECTs 🦾 📁) for all attendees, including notebooks, code, and Gazebo robot simulations. Led by ROS expert Alberto Ezquerro, you'll practice and develop robots in real-time.

Missed a session? Find recordings & ROSJECTs on https://app.theconstruct.ai/open-clas...

We're excited to share this series with you! If you have questions or want to explore new topics, drop us a comment below.

Cheers.
