MobileEyes
MobileEyes is a graphical application for remote visualization, teleoperation, and software configuration.
It communicates with onboard robot software via the wireless network and the ArNetworking system
(included with ARIA), and can run on any PC or laptop.
MobileEyes is used as the user interface to arnlServer, provided with ARNL. It can also be used with any
other server program using the ArNetworking protocol. Use MobileEyes to view the status of the robot,
send it to goals, teleoperate the robot, modify ARNL and robot configuration parameters, and send
custom commands.
