box_finder is a ROS package for students' project based on the ROS navigation stack. It gives a mobile robot the ability to 1) automatically create a map of unknown environment, 2) find a rectangular box with specified sizes within it using a created map, 3) come to found box.
The project has three "main" branches: master, stage_config and robotino_config. They are designed for using package's software with the Kuka Youbot, the Stage simulator and the Robotino respectively and so differ only in the content of configuration and launch files.
The package was designed and tested in the ROS Indigo. In other distros its operability wasn't verified.
