This post is about how to build an AWS Step Functions state machine and how you can use it to interact with IoT edge devices. In this case, we are sending a smoothie order to a "robot" and waiting for it to make that smoothie.
In this post, I show the next step in making ROS2 Control work with the WaveShare JetBot - wrapping the motor control code in a System. I'll walk through some concepts, show the example repository for ROS2 Control implementations, and then show how to implement the System for JetBot and see it running.
Learn how to control the JetBot's motors from C++ using I2C and PWM, which is the first step towards integrating the robot with ros2_control and autonomous navigation.
