Collect data and test training

Data

  • Mount sensors to robot
  • Record rosbags to train model
  • Figure out how much data this model trained on (on spreadsheet)

Train

  • Train terrain representation model
  • Visualize
  • Train terrain preference cost model
  • Visualize

Generate costmap

ROS node that handles the image processing, model inference, and costmap publishing.

  • Imports the PyTorch model, takes in a patch and returns a scalar cost image
