Robot Features
📄️ Joystick
A joystick is a component in ANSCER ANYA that provides manual control for navigating the robot. It allows users to manipulate the robot's movements manually, providing a hands-on way to guide the robot's actions and direction within its operational environment.
📄️ Laser scan
In application, the visible laser scan on top of the map serves as a visual representation of the robot's environment. This scan provides real-time data on the surroundings and is a key element in assessing the accuracy of the robot's localization. By analyzing the laser scan data, users can gauge how well the robot is perceiving its environment, which is vital for ensuring precise navigation and localization. It acts as a valuable tool for monitoring and improving the robot's operational accuracy and safety.
📄️ Robot Mode
Robot Mode refers to the operational state or configuration of ANSCER Robots, offering distinct settings to suit different operational needs and scenarios. ANSCER Robots provide three primary modes
📄️ Initialization/Initialize Robot
The process of initializing a robot involves manually informing the robot about its current position and orientation within the physical environment. This is necessary when the robot loses its localization due to various factors, causing it to stop navigating accurately. Delocalization can be detected when discrepancies arise between the robot's map boundaries and the laser scan data generated by its LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) sensors. When these do not match or overlap properly, it indicates a loss of positional awareness.
📄️ Quick Goal
The "Quick Goal" process is a simplified method to instruct a robot to navigate to a specific known physical location on a map quickly. It involves selecting a point (position) on the map and providing the desired orientation (rotation) for the robot. This single-step process leverages the robot's autonomous navigation capabilities to swiftly guide it to the designated location. It's important to note that these points are not used as reference points for further operations; their sole purpose is to facilitate the rapid, autonomous movement of the robot to a particular spot. "Quick Goal" is a convenient way to efficiently deploy the robot to a specific location without the need for manual control.
