I want to develop an application for NAO robot using ROS (I already started to use ROS with NAO). But I don't know how to choose a scenario for my robot depending on ROS packages (SLAM, objects recognition...).

My question is: is there any ROS packages for NAO applications that i can started with (turtlebot robot for example has the navigation stacks -SLAM- in ROS).

Can anyone help me please??

  • $\begingroup$ Navigation with NAO is tricky unless you mount a kinect-like sensor on his head, and still the nature of the bipedal walking itself makes it really difficult to model the robot's motion in contrast to simple robots with a differential drive like the turtlebot. $\endgroup$

There are quite a few NAO related packages available for ROS. One of them is a Kinect based teleoperation package: which may not have been updated recently.

http://wiki.ros.org/nao/Tutorials/Using%20Kinect%20to%20Teleoperate%20Nao%20without%20cross-compiling%20%28electric%20on%20NaoQi%201.12%29

But on the bigger scheme of things, perhaps you can try setting up MoveIt! for NAO, and subsequently use it for motion planning on the arms.

There is also a NAO path follower stack at http://wiki.ros.org/nao_path_follower

  • $\begingroup$ Edited answer with another link to a naoqi stack for path following, given localization is already there. $\endgroup$ Commented Feb 7, 2017 at 1:59
