Package Summary
A small demo application to get your group of TurtleBots moving around autonomously. The TurtleBot will attempt to identify another TurtleBot in its view and begin to follow it. Running this on multiple TurtleBots with a teleop'd bot at the front can make for a fun demo!

Hardware Requirements
You'll need a TurtleBot! Don't have one yet?
Example
Use the launch file
roslaunch turtlebot_train train.launch
Make sure the robot starts with a good amount of floor area in it's view so that it can properly calibrate the floor plane.
(Edit; 12/8/2011) If turtlebot doesn't move even though it shows the x-z distance of another turtlebot on commandline, you might want to modify the launch file as following (probably due to this ticket).
Before; <param name="out_vel" value="/turtlebot_node/cmd_vel" /> After; <param name="out_vel" value="/cmd_vel" />
