Additional software

This page introduces some additional software that can be used to simplify or help using the SuperMegaBot.

Mission Planner

A mission plan defines the logic how and when different missions are executed. The mission plan is implemented as a smach state machine. Each mission has its own mission data, containing relevant information for the mission (e.g. its waypoints). For more explanation please refer to the MissionPlanner.

NodeManager

When running the full software stack on the robot, a lot of ROS nodes are run simultaneously. NodeManager can help in launching and monitoring the current status of each node.
