This repository is for documentation purposes regarding Obstacle Avoidance using LiDAR on a mobile robot.
To get started into the subject of Point Clouds, there's a reference directory where I tested some of the foundational algorithms using both CPP and Python. Just click the header of this section and you'll be redirected to the README containing the guidance for running the algorithms. While for more advanced applications involving ROS and real-time clustering - and offline processing too! - the ROS Package to Run Clustering Algorithms on a Mobile Robot section can be useful.
