## To-do

**All steps are done on the laptop on the cartbot**

### Navigation
1. Run the LiDAR and visualize point cloud scans

roslaunch lunabot_nav lidar.launch

2. Experiment placing different obstacles in front of the scan area to see how the point cloud line change shape
3. Collect lidar data of different obstacles and the ground itself using rosbag
> May also want to include topics of the front facing depth camera ([instructions on running depth camera](https://github.com/PurdueLunabotics/purdue_lunabotics/tree/master/lunabot_localization), can go directly to step 4)

# rosbag record <topics>
rosbag record rosout tf cmd_vel

4. Upload a folder with today's date mm-dd-yy [here](https://purdue0-my.sharepoint.com/:f:/g/personal/ruppulur_purdue_edu/EsF9vnDnd-NEk0FS0X0SzoQBYuA2aEWLz7d69kRiShFXsQ?e=LZqsb0) with the rosbag you created and a .txt file with info describing the data you created (i.e what was the distance between the lidar and the obstacle, what were the obstacles used)

### Localization
- [ ] Need to install MATLAB on the linux computer to calibrate the apriltags, so try doing that
- [ ] Bluetooth beacons are in BIDC in the cart if @evan you want to work with them
