sl-webui 767f377120 feat: Add Issue #504 - Integration test suite with launch_testing
Create saltybot_tests package with comprehensive automated testing:

Test Coverage:
- Node startup verification (all critical nodes within 30s)
- Topic publishing verification
- TF tree completeness (all transforms present)
- Sensor health checks (RPLIDAR, RealSense, IMU)
- Perception pipeline (person detection availability)
- Navigation stack (odometry, transforms)
- System stability (30-second no-crash test)
- Graceful shutdown verification

Features:
- launch_testing framework for automated startup tests
- NodeChecker: wait for nodes in ROS graph
- TFChecker: verify TF tree completeness
- TopicMonitor: track message rates and counts
- Follow mode tests (minimal hardware deps)
- Subsystem-specific tests for sensor health
- Comprehensive README with troubleshooting

Usage:
  pytest src/saltybot_tests/test/test_launch.py -v -s
  or
  colcon test --packages-select saltybot_tests

Performance Targets:
- Node startup: <30s (follow mode)
- RPLIDAR: 10 Hz scan rate
- RealSense: 30 Hz RGB + depth
- Person detection: 5 Hz
- System stability: 30s no-crash validation

Jetson Nano — AI/SLAM Platform Setup

Self-balancing robot: Jetson Nano dev environment for ROS2 Humble + SLAM stack.

Stack

Component Version / Part
Platform Jetson Nano 4GB
JetPack 4.6 (L4T R32.6.1, CUDA 10.2)
ROS2 Humble Hawksbill
DDS CycloneDDS
SLAM slam_toolbox
Nav Nav2
Depth camera Intel RealSense D435i
LiDAR RPLIDAR A1M8
MCU bridge STM32F722 (USB CDC @ 921600)

Quick Start

# 1. Host setup (once, on fresh JetPack 4.6)
sudo bash scripts/setup-jetson.sh

# 2. Build Docker image
bash scripts/build-and-run.sh build

# 3. Start full stack
bash scripts/build-and-run.sh up

# 4. Open ROS2 shell
bash scripts/build-and-run.sh shell

Power Budget (Summary)

Scenario Total
Idle 2.9W
Nominal (SLAM active) ~10.2W
Peak 15.4W

Target: 10W (MAXN nvpmodel). Use RPLIDAR standby + 640p D435i for compliance. See docs/power-budget.md for full analysis.
