2. For launch wandering example:

roslaunch hamster_launch prokit_wandering.launch

Wandering with obstacle avoidance will start automatically.

3. For launch detection example:

roslaunch hamster_launch prokit_detection.launch

To see picture with detection use standard ros plugin: rqt_image_view

NOTE: In case no input from camera - reconnect USB realsense D435i

/agent<your_agent_number>/openvino_toolkit/images - topic to see detection

To control robot drive/steering use /agent1/ackermann_cmd topic.

Optionally you can publish through rqt standard ROS program:

Open new terminal, make source to ros1:

ros_prokit

Run rqt:

rqt

In the top menu open tabs choose plugins->topics-message publisher

Set the topic name to /agent1/ackermann_cmd and press on the right green "+" like shows on the screen below - this will add topic to UI
