SIMLAN, Simulation for Multi-Camera Robotics
2026, Jan 02
This simulation environment, based on the Ignition Gazebo simulator and ROS 2, resembles a Volvo Trucks warehouse and serves as a playground for rapid prototyping and testing of systems that rely on a multi-camera setup for perception, monitoring, localization or even navigation. This project is inspired by GPSS (Generic photo-based sensor system) that utilizes ceiling-mounted cameras, deep learning and computer vision algorithms, and very simple transport robots.
