1.3.3 TurtleBot Setup

Note: This tutorial assumes that you have completed tutorials:

• Ubuntu on VM
• ROS on Ubuntu

ROS2 Humble - TurtleBot4

$\textcolor{red}{\textsf{Important:}}$ With ROS2, ROS# has moved its tutorials to R2D2 from TurtleBot for convenience. Thus, this section is optional and won't be used in any ROS# tutorial. Also, you don't need to install any robot for those tutorials as R2D2 is already included in the file_server2 package (see File Server Package).

This tutorial explains how to set up the example robot TurtleBot4.

• Install the required TurtleBot4 sources on the VM

sudo apt update && sudo apt install ros-humble-turtlebot4-*

ROS1 Noetic - TurtleBot2

This tutorial explains how to set up the example robot TurtleBot2.

• Install the required TurtleBot2 sources on the Ubuntu VM

sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-turtlebot ros-kinetic-turtlebot-apps ros-kinetic-turtlebot-interactions ros-kinetic-turtlebot-simulator ros-kinetic-kobuki-ftdi ros-kinetic-ar-track-alvar-msgs ros-kinetic-turtlebot-gazebo

• Set the required environment variables:

export TURTLEBOT_BASE=roomba
export TURTLEBOT_STACKS=circles
export export TURTLEBOT_3D_SENSOR=kinect
