ROS2 Outdoor Autonomy for Go2

Job ID: 40381679

Budget: $250 – $750 USD

I have a Unitree Go2 and need it to navigate outdoors without manual input. The focus is straight-forward: build and integrate a ROS 2 solution that lets the robot plan, localise, and execute safe paths across natural terrain. You are free to leverage the Nav2 stack, slam_toolbox, or any other ROS 2 packages that suit the task, as long as the end result runs reliably on the Go2’s onboard computer and works with its existing sensors.

Deliverables
• ROS 2 workspace with all custom nodes, launch files, and parameter sets
• Clear build & deployment instructions (README or tutorial video) so I can reproduce the behaviour on a fresh system
• Short live demo or rosbag proving the robot can start, plan, and reach a goal point over outdoor ground (grass/gravel) without tele-operation
• Brief report explaining key algorithms and how to tune them for different sites

Acceptance
I will consider the job complete when the demo shows consistent, collision-free navigation on my test lawn and the documentation lets me repeat the run myself.

Let me know if any additional sensors or calibration data are required and we can arrange access.
