Build drones that can think, plan, and fly safely-no matter how unpredictable the environment. In ROS2 Navigation for Drones: Path Planning and Obstacle Avoidance in Dynamic Settings , you'll learn how to harness the power of ROS2 (Robot Operating System 2) to create autonomous aerial systems capable of navigating complex and constantly changing environments. From indoor warehouses to bustling outdoor sites, this hands-on guide equips you with the skills to develop reliable navigation stacks that adapt in real time. Inside, you'll discover how to: Set up ROS2 for UAV navigation , including sensor integration and environment mapping. Implement local and global path planning algorithms for dynamic conditions. Use SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) to operate in GPS-denied environments. Apply obstacle detection and avoidance strategies using LiDAR, vision, and radar. Integrate Nav2 with drone flight controllers for seamless autonomy. Handle multi-drone coordination and collision prevention in shared airspace. Optimize navigation performance through simulation in Gazebo and real-world flight tests. With step-by-step tutorials , code snippets , and practical case studies , this book bridges the gap between theory and application, making ROS2 navigation accessible to drone engineers, robotics developers, and advanced hobbyists alike. Who This Book Is For UAV developers integrating ROS2 for autonomous navigation. Robotics engineers working in aerial mobility and inspection. AI/ML specialists designing adaptive navigation algorithms. Students and researchers in robotics, aerospace, and computer vision. When your drone can navigate anywhere, it can go everywhere.
