This week we focus on robot navigation.
Lab 13: Go over the Stretch ROS navigation stack tutorials. Make a map of the robot's environment and demonstrate that it can localize and navigate.
Lab 14: Write a program that allows saving the robot's current pose on the map with a name and, later, send the robot to that pose. Your program can have a command line or web-based interface.
Lab 15 (optional): If your project involves local servoing, we recommend on working on that now. You can see this example for low-level control of the robot base.
Lab 16: Lastly, complete the tutorial on Stretch FUNMAP (Fast Unified Navigation, Manipulation And Planning).
