RPLIDAR is a low-cost LIDAR sensor suitable for indoor robotic SLAM(Simultaneous localization and mapping) application. It can be used in the other applications such as:

  1. General robot navigation and localization
  2. Obstacle avoidance
  3. Environment scanning and 3D modeling

The aim of this tutorial is to use the Robot Operating System (ROS) on a NVIDIA Jetson Nano Developer Kit to test the performance of the low‐cost RPLiDAR A1M8 by Slamtec in the SLAM problem.
