NXT ROS - Teleop

This repository contains a keyboard interface to use with NXT ROS.

Installation

The repository is expected to be placed inside the source folder of a working catkin environnement.

mkdir nxt_teleop
cd nxt_teleop
mkdir src
cd src
git clone https://github.com/NXT-ROS/nxt_teleop.git
cd ..
catkin init
catkin build

You now have a working package with the nxt_teleop package in it.

Using NXT Teleop

The teleop package needs the core NXT ROS package to be properly loaded in order to work, more information on this here.

As for any catkin package, you first need to add its folders to your environnement (make sure to select the correct file for your system).

cd nxt_teleop
source devel/setup.(bash|sh|zsh)

You can then start ros with the provided launch file:

roslaunch nxt_teleop teleop_keyboard.launch
