Sorry for a late response, but I did a project using a Pololu Romi drive system with several ROS nodes and a BeagleBone Blue running everything, from roscore to all of the other nodes. It is certainly a work in progress, and I plan to eventually get it to work with an Intel RealSense Camera or the Intel Euclid camera (TBD). You can see my progress here: https://github.com/alextac98/TurtleBotMini
