How to detect objects for pick and place operations
There exists a pkg called find_object_2d that is capable of detecting objects and publishing their respective locations using transforms. This pkg can only detect specific objects by manually selecting the part of the image that contains the object. To detect multiple objects, using this pkg becomes tedious. Is there some other way to be able to determine the location of the detected object? Is there a standard way of going about pick and place operations? Thank you for your time
These seem to be 2 questions in one:
If you're using a robot arm you can use moveit to position the end effector over the object. As for detecting, I'm not too versed in the different options. Yet mind that your title doesn't reflect asking for different detection packages.
