Directory scripts hosts the scripts that run and kill the reader's application and the robot's bringup. Directory configuration_files hosts the controller's (joystick) configuration that maps its buttons to keyboard keys, so that a SSH connection to the robot is made redundant for execution and teleoperation.

Once the robot's pc is up and running execute

  • L1+circle to launch the robot (once executed, use R1+right_pad to rotate and R1+left_pad to translate)
  • L1+L2+circle to kill the robot
  • L1+square to launch the reader
  • L1+L2+square to kill the reader

A useful mnemonic device is remembering that the robot has a circular shape, while the antennas attached to the robot are of a square shape.

If keyboard execution is desired, use the following mapping:

  • L1 = Ctrl
  • L2 = Alt
  • square = 1
  • circle = 2

so that Ctrl+1 launches the reader application, Ctrl+Alt+1 kills it, Ctrl+2 launches the robot, and Ctrl+Alt+2 kills it.

As regards the binding of the content of the relief_support_files directory to the OS:

  • Keyboard shortcuts should be mapped to their execution as per the instructions above).
  • antimicro_conf.gamecontroller.amgp should be added to the startup applications of the robot's OS with the command field filled as follows: screen -S relief_antimicro -d -m antimicro --hidden --profile /home/$USER/relief_support_files/configuration_files/antimicro_conf.gamecontroller.amgp.
