Abstract

The Active Vision Group (AGAS) has gained plenty of experience in robotics over the past years. This contribution focuses on the area of service robotics. We present several important components that are crucial for a service robot system: mapping and navigation, object recognition, speech synthesis and speech recognition. A detailed tutorial on each of these packages is given in the presented chapter. All of the presented components are published on our ROS package repository: http://​wiki.​ros.​org/​agas-ros-pkg.
