PICO compares two distances measured from the laser scans and based on their difference it will correct its orientation by rotating to the left or to the right. During this this rotation a small forward velocity is fed to the base in order to get a smooth movement. | PICO compares two distances measured from the laser scans and based on their difference it will correct its orientation by rotating to the left or to the right.

PICO compares two distances measured from the laser scans and based on their difference it will correct its orientation by rotating to the left or to the right. During this this rotation a small forward velocity is fed to the base in order to get a smooth movement.
Experiments are performed on PICO, however the testing did not go as planned. PICO had to be resetted sometimes and did not respond to our commands as expected, the data shown in the terminal however, did show the proper values while running.
- Exit detection
- Taking the exit
Planning & Work division
- How to use the PICO robot (19/9)
- Work on the core functions that will allow the robot to fullfill the corridor task (23/9)
- wall_following
- exit_detection
- take_exit
- motion
Each member of the group will focus on a single function
