Perfection Went Above
It was a lot of very useful knowledge and practice! Fleet management was the last part I had to figure out in my project to develop a robot for warehouse logistics, and this training helped me with that. Now I understand how Open-RMF works, know how to configure it, and am able to add it to my own project.
