Autonomous data center inspection with a Unitree A2-W in simulation

Map a data center with a Unitree A2-W wheeled quadruped and 3D LiDAR SLAM, then run autonomous waypoints that capture RGB and thermal images of server racks.

What happens in this video

A Unitree A2-W wheeled quadruped is spawned into a data center simulation. The operator maps the space with the onboard 3D LiDAR while Nav2 builds a SLAM map of the aisles and rack rows.

Waypoints are placed on the finished map with actions to capture RGB and thermal images from the PTZ camera payload. The A2-W then runs the route autonomously, photographing the server racks at each defined point.
