# Rover Quest Book - Winter 2025 (W25)

## The Great Objective: Autonomous Navigation for the UWRT Rover
4+
5+
The WATO Rover Team is helping build the autonomous navigation system for the UWRT's [URC 2025](https://urc.marssociety.org/home/requirements-guidelines) rover.
6+
7+
## Term Objectives Summary
8+
9+
The objectives for Winter 2025 focus on integrating UWRT's existing modules with the WATO Monorepo/watod infrastructure, as well as building out the autonomy software using nav2.
10+
11+
1. **Point Cloud Generator**:
12+
- Create a point cloud using the IntelRealSense D435 cameras and the RealSense SDK, and publish the point cloud message to Nav2 for Costmap Generation, and localization.
13+
2. **Object Detection**:
14+
- Using camera feeds to generate field relative poses for mission-critical objects.
15+
3. **ArUco Marker Detection**:
16+
- Using camera feeds to generate field relative poses for ArUco markers.
17+
4. **Behaviour Tree**:
18+
- Using the Behaviour Tree to plan the navigation of the rover.
19+
5. **Nav2 Integration**:
20+
- Use sensor data from rover to plan and control the rover.
21+
- Use the rover's odometry to plan and control the rover (costmap, localize, plan, and control).
22+
6. **Simulation**:
23+
- Generate rover URDF and TF tree.
24+
- Gazebo simulation for both the rover and desert environment.
25+
26+
