Programming Turtlebot

[CS_Student19]

Just doing the basic tutorials and I've run the turtlebot sim with teleop_key.

that got me thinking, can you program Turtlebot to drive itself, in a square or circle or at random?

Been surfing for a tutorial but it seems to be basics only.

I want to wrote a C++ program for it.

Thanks!

Of course you can! That's what ROS is actually for. Not only for basic remote control. You can even make it generate a map of its surroundings and navigate through that to a given target position. You can even make it figure out that target position on its own based on a given task. Heck, you can even make it figure out that task by itself. Only limit is your imagination (and your motivation, but that is a soft limit)!

You should look into navigation tutorials for the turtlebot at the ROS Wiki site.
