Chapter 3:
This section will walk you through running some example programs from ARIA and MOGS.
You can run these examples either on the robot embedded computer, or, you can simulate the robot on
your own laptop or desktop workstation, by first simply running the MobileSim simulator and selecting
the pioneer-lx robot type (however, not all hardware features and devices are simulated.)
ARIA Demo
ARIA includes an example called demo. This is as simple text mode program that connects to the robot
and other devices and displays information read from them. You may also drive (teleoperate) the robot
using the keyboard, test movement of a pan/tilt camera, etc.
Onboard Computer Running Linux:
1.
If using simulation, install MobileSim and ARIA from the CD or from
http://support.mobilerobots.com/wiki/Software. Run MobileSim and select the "pioneer-lx" or
"pioneer-lx-ld" robot type.
2.
If using the actual robot, log in to the onboard computer using ssh, or log in at the console and
start a terminal session. Log in as guest with password mobilerobots.
3.
Change to the ARIA examples directory with the following command:
cd /usr/local/Aria/examples
4.
Run demo with the following command:
./demo
Onboard Computer Running Windows:
1.
If using simulation, install MobileSim and ARIA from the CD or from
http://support.mobilerobots.com/wiki/Software. Run MobileSim and select the "pioneer-lx" robot
type.
2.
If using the actual robot, log in to the onboard computer using Remote Desktop, or log in at the
console. Log in as Administrator with password mobilerobots.
3.
Double click the ARIA Demo icon on the desktop to run ARIA Demo, or run it from the Start
menu (All Programs -> MobileRobots -> ARIA -> demo).
