[ros-users] Multiple waypoints in move_base

[Alex Bravo]

Goncalo,

I've been looking at the package you created for Roomba 560
http://www.ros.org/wiki/roomba_500_series
and I just wanted to say thank you for such an excellent job!

We are considering purchase of iRobot and wondering if extra expense of
Roomba 535/560/570 is worth it compared to iRobot Create. We also see that,
say Brown University still uses iRobot Create.

Considering your experience (if I remeber correctly, you were mentioning
those robots a year ago), what are you thoughts on the
advantages/disadvantages between those models?

Thank you,
Alex Bravo
