Now, we have understood how to use Arduino with ROS. In this section, we are prepared to connect our first actuators to ROS. There are a lot of low-cost kits for Arduino users that we can choose to make a robot controlled by ROS. During this section, we are going to use a 4 x 4 robot kit chassis.
4 x 4 robot platform with Odroid C1, Arduino, 9 DOF Razor IMU, and joystick
In order to have ROS in our robot, not only an Arduino is needed, but we will also need an embedded computer with ROS installed. There is a lot of ARM based-boards compatible with ROS, such as Dragonboard, Raspberry Pi, or BeagleBone ...
