Add Demo-Launchfiles

[beetleskin]

To get started, it would be nice to have several Demo launch-files with artificial data, that run several flavors/configs of fuse localization, visualize the data in RViz and maybe some plots.

[svwilliams]

Also agreed. And I will eventually put those together.

I will also caution you that this project is in active development. and I do not consider it a "1.0" release yet. As such, the API will change without notice. I am mostly happy with the current inter-component API, but there are some subtle changes planned (like some unique ptrs replacing shared ptrs), along with whatever changes are needed as I find and fix issues.

Thanks for the info. Btw, great package, and thanks for putting it online :)

Hello,

this package looks very promising as a general sensor fusion framework.

Could you add a minimal working sample launchfile / simulation so we can get an entry point as to how to use and extend this package ?

Best,

Jeremy

Hi,

this library looks amazing, but without a few examples, it is really hard to figure out how to get started.

It would be nice to get executable examples related to the ones in the README file

[saimouli]

Wondering if there are any examples coming anytime soon :-)

I agree with @facontidavide.

It would be helpful if there is a 2d robot launch example which fuses simulated sensor data using the API

[svwilliams]

Yeah. I need to spend the time to put some sort of turtlebot sim together. Though I still can't say when that will happen. If anyone is willing to put that sim together, I'll gladly walk them through how to configure the fuse system.

[saimouli]

@svwilliams that would be great. I had exactly the same idea of configuring the pkg with the Turtebot 3. I am actually working on it now. It would be helpful if you would walk me through the process (either through email or as GitHub discussion).

[svwilliams]

Sure thing. Send me an email at swilliams@locusrobotics.com and we can work out the details.

@saimouli Has this guide been yet published? :)

@saimouli @svwilliams Any update for the guide? Willing to help and learn this great library.
