**Over 70 recipes to help you master advanced ROS concepts**

## What is this book about?
This book will leverage the power of ROS with an introduction to its core and advanced concepts through exciting recipes. You will get acquainted with the use of different synchronous and asynchronous communication methods, including messages, services, and actions. You will learn how to use the various debugging and visualization tools used in development and how to interface sensors and actuators with the ROS framework.

This book covers the following exciting features: <First 5 What you'll learn points>
* Explore advanced concepts such as ROS pluginlib, nodelets, and actionlib
* Work with ROS visualization, profiling, and debugging tools
* Gain experience in robot modeling and simulation using Gazebo
* Understand the ROS Navigation Stack for mobile robots
* Configure a MoveIt! package for a manipulator robot

## Instructions and Navigations
All of the code is organized into folders. For example, Chapter02.

The code will look like the following:
```
<launch> 
 <group ns="/"> 
  <param name="rosversion" command="rosversion roslaunch" /> 
  <param name="rosdistro" command="rosversion -d" /> 
  <node pkg="rosout" type="rosout" name="rosout" respawn="true"/> 
 </group> 
</launch>
```

**Following is what you need for this book:**
