Remote control: ROS 2 on the robot; from a laptop use rosbridge +
roslibpy, a Linux VM, or SSH/JupyterLab with Yahboom's Rosmaster_Lib and a small custom HTTP endpoint.Overview
A full lidar + RGB-D SLAM platform with serious Jetson options for on-robot inference. For a laptop-driven LLM agent, though, expect to fight ROS and Yahboom's Docker images, the runtime is short, and mecanum wheels slip on carpet. Hard-floor homes only.
