This project focused on developing a lane identification and tracking algorithm running on a RaspberryPi 3 that would enable the autonomous navigation of a modified Elegoo vehicle. The system was developing using ROS and Gazebo was used as the simulation environment. This video tutorial briefly covers the following topics:
- A brief overview of the required hardware and software
- Development and implementation of a drive-by-wire system for manual control of the vehicle in Gazebo and in the real world.
- Development of a lane detection and tracking algorithm.
- Implementation of a PD control system to produce steering commands for the vehicle based on the estimated lane position.
- Experimental verification of the image processing algorithm and control system in simulation and on the physical vehicle

Cool!

Hi Will, very interesting project! just bought the elegoo kit and digging into ROS right now. It seems the link you provide in the comments is currently dead, would you mind checking?

[@MrPerfectR3]

I think you working now in Tesla

[@jianhuaixie]

could you public the github address?

@@wilselby could you tell me how to set the navigation?i can only use the teleop to control the vehicle.And the opencv didnot show the image.

@@janesjako6934 Did you verify that the control system is publishing control commands on the right ROS topic?

@@wilselby Hi,Wil,thanks for your answer.I didnot see the control commands.By the way,i still have a question,if i jsut do the pure simulation without phyical vehicle and material,do i have to use the
raspberry camera ?I am not sure if i have to use the camera or not ,if it is needed ,it seems like i have to install a ubuntu mate system,which is very complicate ,bec if i install it,all the environment that i install in my ubuntu 16.04 will be gone.

@@janesjako6934 You do not need the phyiscal camera, the ROS Gazebo environment will simulate it for you!
