## About The Project
-The perception pipeline project aims to develop a robust and efficient system for extracting meaningful information from sensor data in order to enable autonomous robots, such as the MR-Robot, to understand and interact with their environment. By incorporating advanced techniques like object detection using deep learning models, the perception pipeline enhances the robot's ability to detect and identify objects, enabling it to perform tasks such as mapping, navigation, and sanitation. This project focuses on creating a modular and adaptable perception pipeline that can be customized and expanded to suit different robotic applications, thereby paving the way for more intelligent and capable autonomous systems.
+Our aim is to build a one-stop solution to all the problems related to Robotics-Perception. We are creating a plug-and-play ROS 2 based perception-pipeline which can be customized
+for user-specific custom tasks in the blink of an eye. We are in the process of creating different components for tasks like Object Detection, Image Pre-Processing, Image Segmentation etc.
+These components can be stitched together to make a custom pipeline for any use-case, just like how we play with LEGO bricks.

## Getting Started
-This is an example of how you may give instructions on setting up your project locally.
-To get a local copy up and running follow these simple example steps.
+Follow these steps to setup this project on your systm
### Prerequisites
-This is an example of how to list things you need to use the software and how to install them.
-* Ros
- - Refer to our [Ros installation guide](https://atom-robotics-lab.github.io/wiki/markdown/ros/installation.html)
- - Installing Navigation specific dependencies: map-server, move_base and amcl
- ```sh
- sudo apt install ros-noetic-map-server ros-noetic-move-base ros-noetic-amcl
- ```
+Follow these steps to install ROS Humble and OpenCV
+* ROS Humble
+Refer to the official [ROS 2 installation guide](https://docs.ros.org/en/humble/Installation.html)
-* Opencv
- ```sh
- sudo apt install libopencv-dev python3-opencv
+* OpenCV
+ ```bash
+ pip install opencv-contrib-python
```
### Installation
1. Make a new workspace
-```bash
-mkdir -p percep_ws/src
-```
+ ```bash
+ mkdir -p percep_ws/src
+ ```
2. Clone the ROS-Perception-Pipeline repository
-Now go ahead and clone this repository inside the "src" folder of the workspace you just created.
-
-```bash
-cd percep_ws/src
-
-git clone git@github.com:atom-robotics-lab/ros-perception-pipeline.git
-```
+ Now go ahead and clone this repository inside the "src" folder of the workspace you just created.
-3. Make the package
+ ```bash
+ cd percep_ws/src
+ git clone git@github.com:atom-robotics-lab/ros-perception-pipeline.git
+ ```
-We'll need to "make" everything in our catkin workspace so that the ROS environment knows about our new package. (This will also compile any necessary code in the package). Execute the given commands in your terminal.
+3. Compile the package
-```bash
-colcon build --symlink-install
-```
+ Follow this execution to compile your ROS 2 package
+
+ ```bash
+ colcon build --symlink-install
+ ```
-Now you will need to source your workspace
-```bash
-source install/local_setup.bash
-```
+4. Source your workspace
+ ```bash
+ source install/local_setup.bash
+ ```
