Challenge Description

Now generate a map using the raw and analyzed data from the dark environment.
Mini-Challenge: Dark Environment Map
Procedure:

1. Gather Your Materials:
  • Access the raw and analyzed data from the investigation, focusing on the LIDAR readings, depth maps, and object recognition results.
  • Obtain a piece of graph paper to create your map.

2. Review the Data:
  • Go through the LIDAR data to understand the distances of objects from the Jetbot.
  • Examine the depth maps for spatial arrangement and depth perception of various objects.
  • Look at the object recognition results to identify the types of objects detected in the robot's environment.

3. Draw the Map:
  • Start by marking the position of the Jetbot in the center of your graph paper. Represent the path that the robot took with an arrow.
  • Using the LIDAR readings, plot the distances of objects on the graph paper. You can represent objects as simple shapes or symbols.
  • Refer to the depth maps and object recognition data to add layers to your map. Indicate the approximate size and type of each object based on this data.
  • Use different colors or annotations to represent various depths and types of objects.

4. Label Your Map:
  • Clearly label each object with its identified type (if known) and its estimated distance from the Jetbot. 
  • If depth information is available, include this to give a sense of how far or near each object is in relation to others.

5. Capture and Submit Your Map:
  • Once your map is complete, take a clear picture of it.
  • Upload your picture to the CS-STEM Network.

6. Mapping Guidelines:
  • Be as accurate as possible with distances and object placements based on the data.
  • Use the graph lines to maintain scale and proportion in your map.
