Overview

stdr_resources package is the container for the resources needed by STDR Simulator to operate. The resources are divided in two main groups: maps and yaml/xml files.

Maps

In the maps section six indicative maps are provided. Note that each map is actually a pair of files:

• A png file that holds the plane overview of the environment
• A yaml file that holds the map meta-information (resolution, origin etc).

Yaml/XML files

In this section the files under the stdr_resources/resources folder are described. These are Yaml or XML files that describe robots and sensors. The available folders, each holding some sample resource files, are:

• robots: Contains samples of robots.

• laser_sensors: Various LRF sensors

• range_sensors: Various Sonar and IR sensors

• footprint: Different robot footprints (only circlular footprint available at v0.1)
