This week I mostly researched how to setup the LIDAR with ROS. We needed an additional Nvidia Jetson so that we could work on the image detection and range detection at the same time. Therefore, I spent a lot of time configuring and updating the Jetson so that it could be connected to the internet so we can start downloading the libraries we need to run the LIDAR. Next week, I will be installing the LIDAR packages and implement a program in ROS to get LIDAR data.
