Task Description
Need for project: We need to maximize the field of view (FOV) of the two front-facing depth cameras, which are essential to autonomy and reliable navigation. The larger the FOV, the more the environment can be analyzed and the better the object avoidance.
Goal: In Gazebo Sim, based on the parameters of the natural sense depth cameras, we use and change the camera angle and placement to maximize the surrounding area's coverage.
Requirements:
- Must be able to cover at least 160 degrees at the front of the rover (if this can not be met, why?)
- Work with mech to ensure the sim placement is feasible on our rover.

UPDATE
Bullet points for updates
Communication
Communication must be proactive. The subteam lead will check in with you at least once a week to get a progress report update, but it is essential that when a roadblock occurs, you reach out for help and update Monday with a blocked or stuck status.
Blocked: for tasks that have dependencies on other projects that have not been completed yet
Stuck: you are unable to get something working.
Documentation
Upon making progression updates, please update the documentation page for this project with any critical information and resources.
