Mathieu,where can I find instructions to perform map building and localization using a single RGB camera ?

Look into ros_arduino_bridge . It uses a lot less memory on the arduino.

I've seen localization based on the ceiling image mentioned a few places[1],[2] but its not clear to me if a ros package like RGBDSLAM or RTABMAP can be used with a kinect pointing at the ceiling ? If not, is there another package that can be used to perform SLAM and then localization based on the ceiling ?

I went with ros_arduino_bridge since it is lightweight compared with rosserial arduino.

Which one should I use and why ?

I used openVPN to create tun0 and then used that interface for ROS.

This is not the problem. The issue isn't that the terminal is closed; the issue is that the wlan0 interface loses its ip for a little bit. In other words, this behaviour happens even if i start the processes locally on the the robot.

2015-07-31 14:49:53 -0500 asked a question ROS dies when wifi disconnects temporarily

I'm using ROS across two machines: robot and workstation

When the wifi on the robot disconnects (might happen when switching AP's), the ros processes die.

I tried using 127.0.0.1 for ROS_MASTER and ROS_HOSTNAME which solves the issue but my workstation cannot connect to the robot. I also tried using 0.0.0.0 for ROS_MASTER and ROS_HOSTNAME but ROS doesn't like it.

I've also tried ssh port forwarding but ROS uses many ports.

The command that I run on the robot is:

roslaunch turtlebot_bringup minimal.launch and roslaunch turtlebot_navigation amcl_demo.launch map_file:=/tmp/my_map.yaml

The command that I run on the wokstation is roslaunch turtlebot_rviz_launchers view_navigation.launch

How to solve this issue ?
