Build the `obj_detect` Package

Build the obj_detect package in your ROS 2 workspace so you can run the object detection node.

Before running the object detection node you need to compile its package. This module walks you through building the obj_detect package and sourcing the workspace so ROS 2 can find the node.

bash
cd ~/repos/common_platform/common_platform_ws
colcon build --packages-select obj_detect --symlink-install
source install/setup.bash
