    Web Based User-Friendly Graphical Interface to Control Robots with ROS Environment
    (IEEE, 2021-12-01) Rajapaksha, D. D; Nuhuman, M. N. M; Gunawardhana, S. D; Sivalingam, A; Mohamed Hassan, M. N; Rajapaksha, S. K; Jayawardena, C
    We have proposed a web-based approach to controlling robots in simulation. This web application will provide a simple user interface to demonstrate the various capabilities of robots. It is intended to be used by beginners who are interested in working with the Robot Operating System(ROS). The evaluation of the system is specifically achieved with Turtlebot3 waffle pi model. All the robot's functionalities are displayed in a simulated environment so users do not need an actual robot or direct access to ROS. The application covers various manual and autonomous functionalities of the robot while trying to be as interactive as possible. Each interface provides an overview of the function and basic implementation details. The goal of the proposed system is to make robotics accessible to anyone with web access and to mitigate the need to have a specific computer environment and knowledge in programming to access Robotics.
