========== ABOUT ME ==========
My name is Kajal Gada. I am a Robotics Software Engineer and a youtuber. My goal is to develop algorithms for realizing robot operations in the real world. And it is just absolute fun to code and solve problems.
I started my journey in Robotics by working on small personal projects such as a line follower with an arduino. I then pursued and graduated with a Masters in Robotics from University of Maryland in 2017. After graduation, I have worked at Reality AI, Qualcomm and Brain Corp.
I am also a UA-camr, it is my way of giving back and helping the community grow. As a women and an international student in the US, I am aware of the challenges to break through and have a successful career. I share my insights and also teach robotics through my youtube channel.

Thanks Kajal!!
Really helpful!
I'm gonna come back for more help :)

[@KajalGada]

That is great to hear :)

[@javiergarcia1149]

Hi, Kajal. I enjoyed your videos, I would like to know if you had tutorials or could make a video explaining how to communicate webots with other platforms or interfaces made with Visual Studio. Thanks.

[@srinirupan]

Could you upload a video about using ros1 with webots

[@KajalGada]

I will add it to my list. :)

Cant run anymore incompatible with Ubuntu 24.04

hello Kajal. strange behavior happening,
my loop's not printing anything even thou it doesn't give me any errors when building the code
const float *range_image = wb_lidar_get_range_image(lidar);
for (int k =0; k

[@KajalGada]

Hi Lunga, to debug I will need to look at your full project. Can you share it on our slack community? Link to join: forms.gle/EEsdUm9iyxVVf3jb7

[@lungamkhwanazi3283]

filled the form. no feedback>
may i ask so long, so the lidar effectively replaces the distance sensor ? or do you have examples that incorporate them both ?

[@KajalGada]

@@lungamkhwanazi3283 slack invitation was sent yesterday.
Distance sensors can be of different types including infrared, lidars, etc. Usage depends on your goals.

Your last line of code... you used a forward slash instead of a backward slash. Try (“
