The goal of this application is to develop an autonomous mapping solution for a 2-wheeled robot. This application is developed as the final project in the course SES 598: Autonomous Exploration Systems at Arizona State University. The solution uses RTABMap to develop a quality 3D map while avoiding obstacles.

Code was tested on Ubuntu 20.04 running ROS Noetic.
