2013-10-30 07:29:36 -0500	commented answer	Which technique for 2D SLAM is easy to learn? and the Kinect options seems reasonable. It's advantageous due to it's design as a slam and image processing sensor. Please provide a tutorial on how to use kinect for slam. However I think kinect doesn't have hardware H264 encoding that would make it difficult to use with Beaglebone.
2013-10-30 07:26:47 -0500	commented answer	Which technique for 2D SLAM is easy to learn? sudhanshu_mittal, I have IR Proximity sensors which I can easily connect to Beaglebone Black. Are they good choice for 2D slam? I think I'd need some kind of middleware to read their data in ROS through BBB pins. sarkar

2013-10-27 23:27:25 -0500	asked a question	Which technique for 2D SLAM is easy to learn? Hello Everybody, A ROS newbie here. I'm learning ROS and currently at the file system tutorials. I'm currently running ROS on 64-bit Ubuntu 12 and soon I'm going to install it on Beaglebone Black (Angstrom). I have a Logitech C920 webcam with hardware H264. Please suggest me 2D slam technique which can be used with my webcam and is easy to learn. Regards, sarkar

2013-10-27 21:36:48 -0500	answered a question	uvc_camera gets a terrible image and usb_camera doesn't set framerate Since you have Logitech C920, which has hardware H264 encoding which is an awesome thing. For usb_cam you can try it by changing the value of pixel_format to H264. Change `<param name="pixel_format" value="yuyv" />` to `<param name="pixel_format" value="H264" />`. That should work and you'll get high fps with low resource usage.
