| :warning: Information for end users |
|:------------------------------------|
| Documentation pages are currently being uploaded. The latest version will be available soon. |
| If you need urgent support, please contact [Lorenzo](https://github.com/lorenzopichierri)!   |

|🚨 **NEWS** 🚨|
|:-------------|
|**DOCKER** installer is now available [here](https://github.com/OPT4SMART/crazychoir/tree/master/docker)! |

**CrazyChoir** is a ROS 2 toolbox allowing users to run simulations and experiments on swarms of Crazyflie nano-quadrotors.
**CrazyChoir** implements several tools to model swarms of Crazyflie nano-quadrotors and to run distributed, complex tasks both in simulation and experiments. Examples include task assignment, formation control, and trajectory tracking settings.

## Requirements and Installation
**CrazyChoir** requires ROS 2 Foxy to be installed on your system.

Some preliminary steps are required to complete the installation. We refer the reader to the [installation guide](https://opt4smart.github.io/crazychoir/installation).

## Examples
To check the installation and start to use **CrazyChoir**, you can run

```
ros2 launch crazychoir_examples formation_webots.launch.py 
```

This will start a Webots simulation with 4 Crazyflie nano-quadrotor performing a leader-follower formation control task. A video of the simulation is available here:

>**Note:** The example was executed on a Dell XPS 15 9570 equipped with an Intel i7-7700HQ CPU and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 GPU.

You can also run more advanced examples, such as the letter formation task, or the task assignment experiment. For more information, please refer to the [examples](https://opt4smart.github.io/crazychoir/video) page.
