The Docking Manager node implements high-level functionalitites such as learning dock station locations, handling multiple stations, or managing persistent storage.
It provides a robust mechanism for integrating docking workflows, particularly in dynamic or multi-station environments.
Key features of the Docking Manager include:
📚 LearnDock: Detects dock stations dynamically and stores their location in a persistent database.
🗂️ Dock Management: Integrates with a database to handle multiple stations, supporting complex environments such as multi-floor navigation.
🔄 GoAndDock: Simplifies the docking process by automatically retrieving a dock from the database and executing the maneuver.
📍 Relocalization: Ensures recovery from localization errors by aligning the robot to previously learned dock poses.
⚙️ Seamless Integration: Works with the Docking Server and Target Detection Server for precise and efficient docking operations.
