Not a question, more of a comment… 🤣 It works a treat! I have up on the package manager as I’m new to Arch Linux but installing Noetic using RoboShack and its worked a treat! I got my Turtlebot 3 up and running, got teleop working using the built in controllers, and fired up the SLAM package on the Deck and it’s worked an absolute treat! I’m running a StereoPi board on the Turtlebot, tomorrow I’m going to try and get the stereo cameras working and see if I can generate a 3d map on ...
Running ROS on the Steam Deck is indeed possible, unlocking a world of opportunities for robotics enthusiasts and professionals. Currently, I am working on integrating the Steam Deck into a system that records multiple sensory inputs (LiDAR, RGBD, IMU, GNSS) into a rosbag, offering portability and real-time monitoring. This setup allows us to assess data quality on the fly, ensuring reliable and accurate results.
I believe the Steam Deck holds immense potential for application in the field of robotics. What other projects do you think could take advantage of the Steam Deck's capabilities?
