your videos is distinction, you cannot imagine how it is really helpful for me 😅 please keep it up!❤

[@ArticulatedRobotics]

Thanks!

[@XtremaXRK]

Thank you so much. You are providing one of the best resources for ROS.

[@kraigorcutt3666]

Very cool, been watching since the beginning. Thanks for the videos.

[@ArticulatedRobotics]

Thanks!

Hi, new to ROS but loving your tutorial series. For handling the joystick response, are you using ROS actions or another means? I'm trying to do something similar but with audio indicator playback based on velocity command topic.

[@emilsjonans4518]

Another option is to use serial pins on RPI with a FTDI adapter to communicate with the PI. In my projects I usually route those pins outside the case as they can also help troubleshot boot issues.

[@ArticulatedRobotics]

Yes great point! It's worth flagging (for others reading this) that if you do this please make sure your voltages match or otherwise use a level shifter.

[@emilsjonans4518]

Yes voltage of the serial pins should be checked. Logic levels for raspberry pi are 3.3 volts.

Can you make a video about combining ROS and Arduino using rosserial ? Thank you.

[@laupetre]

I too am interested in this topic.

[@oscarbest5744]

Yes! Me too, I’m really struggling at the moment with wrapping my head around this connection, especially in ROS2. Would microROS be used? And if so, how would a publisher/subscriber be implemented into the hardware interface?

[@abelgeorge4953]

I have been working on a project involving ORB SLAM2 which is a monocular camera based SLAM algorithm. Curiously i haven't been able to find much content regarding such techniques here on KZbin so i was wondering if you would find it interesting to make a video about it. Anyways love the video mate! Keep em coming

[@ArticulatedRobotics]

I was in exactly the same boat a few years ago, and so doing an ORB SLAM tutorial is definitely on my list...don't have a solid plan of when I will get to it, but I will!

[@karanbirchahal3268]

wow, thank you !

[@Cartman6ify]

Leaving the protective foil on was probably what messed up the touch screens precision.

[@catdisc5304]

Nope, I got the same screen, no protector. Hitting menu items, especially on the edge of the screen is just really difficult

[@grahamnichols1416]

Screens, yes. But first and foremost, any project has to have LEDs. The more the better. Any project without an external LED should be illegal. :)

[@SniperUSMC]

I have some old cell phones that I don't use anymore and a IPad tablet that no longer works because the OS is too old but the display is good can either of these displays be used?

[@ArticulatedRobotics]

That would be nice, but unfortunately not easily. The best bet is to do something like what I did in the phone/tablet control video, and modify it to suit your needs. Although I hope with the growth of Foxglove it will also suit many situations
