“I’ve constructed a Rover equipped with an Intel RealSense D415 depth camera. Additionally, I possess some experience working with OpenCV and Numpy.

Now, onto the challenge of computing the Rover’s position and direction. My approach involves creating a 2D grid / map, where each cell represents a pixel / centimeter within the room. A cell marked as TRUE indicates the presence of an obstacle or wall.

However, I’m curious if there are existing libraries that can provide the possible position and direction based on input from a depth or RGB image. ROS seems like a powerful tool, but I find it a bit too complex for my current level of expertise.
