## Abstract (arXiv)

This paper presents an implementation of autonomous navigation functionality based on Robot Operating System (ROS) on a wheeled differential drive mobile platform called Eddie robot. ROS is a framework that contains many reusable software stacks as well as visualization and debugging tools that provides an ideal environment for any robotic project development. The main contribution of this paper is the description of the customized hardware and software system setup of Eddie robot to work with an autonomous navigation system in ROS called Navigation Stack and to implement one application use case for autonomous navigation. For this paper, photo taking is chosen to demonstrate a use case of the mobile robot.
