Mino robot takes its first autonomous outdoor stroll: ROS 2-based following app tested

The Mino robot completed its first outdoor autonomous stroll test. Its ROS 2-based following app runs on a Jetson Orin Nano and has three states: finding people, following people, and companionship. The app uses YOLO-World to detect pedestrians and stereo vision depth estimation to generate 3D bounding boxes, combined with Kalman filter tracking, and continuously recomputes trajectories to control the base and head. The app was completed over a weekend using open-source software modules and a coding agent, and will be released as open source with the robot if the Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign succeeds.
