== About ==

This page presents instructions and software for our customized version of RAPOSA-NG.

For more information, please use the redmine page: http://rm.isr.ist.utl.pt/projects/raposa/wiki/Main_Page

== Access ==

To gain access to RAPOSA-NG session, svn network, etc:

<pre>Username: raposang
Password: raposa2011 </pre>

It is advisable to install ssh-server:

<pre>sudo apt-get install openssh-server</pre>

== Connect to RAPOSANG ==

=== Network ===

Connect to the main AP using an ethernet cable with a static IP.

To configure a static IP for raposa AP, click on the Network icon in upper right corner (ubuntu), then "Edit Connection -> Wired -> Add -> IPv4 Settings"

Pick Manual in Method and add a new IP with the following config:

'''Address:''' 192.168.0.15

'''Netmask:''' 255.255.255.0

'''Gateway:''' 192.168.0.250

Connect using this new connection.

Afterwards, edit your /etc/hosts and add the following line (might need sudo):

<pre>192.168.0.1 raposang</pre>

To check if you are connected to RAPOSA, run:

<pre>ping raposang</pre>

If it pings, you are connected!

For ssh (remote access), run

<pre>ssh raposang@raposang</pre>

and input the passwork listed here.

=== ROS ===

Follow the above steps for network connection.

Afterwards, everytime you wish to connect to ROS master in RAPOSA (e.g acquire data) open a new terminal and run both commands:

<pre>export ROS_HOSTNAME=sa</pre>

and

<pre>ROS_MASTER_URI=http://raposang:11311</pre>

== Software ==

All software needed for RAPOSA-NG control is preinstalled in RAPOSA-NG and stored in svn.

To download latest trunk version, please use the following command:

<pre>
svn co svn://svn.isr.ist.utl.pt/raposa/raposang/trunk/raposang_ros /home/raposa/ros
</pre>

== Usage ==

RAPOSA-NG uses two different battery sources for the electronics and motors, respectively. '''Please assure that both batteries have a buzzer attached while connected to RAPOSA-NG, and make sure that both batteries and Buzzers are detached from one another after usage.'''

Use the red button to power on/off the motors, and the green button to power on/off the electronics using batteries. The gray button is used to power on/off the CPU, and it can only be powered if either the green button is on with batteries attached, or an external feed is being used.

=== Stacks and Packages for ROS ===

RAPOSA-NG has dozens of stacks with multiple packages. The fundamental ones are:

* '''raposang_common:'''
** '''raposang_msgs:''' Common messages used by raposang packages.
** '''raposang_launch:''' Common launches used by raposang packages.

* '''raposang_control:'''
** '''raposang_drivers:''' Driver needed for RAPOSA-NG basic control and odometry readings.
** '''raposang_joy:''' Bridge for controlling RAPOSA-NG using the output from a joypad.

=== Nodes ===
* motors -- interfaces the motor controllers: sends motor velocity commands and receives encoder readings
* sensors -- interfaces the sonars (currently disabled) and the battery sensors
* joydrive -- node to control the robot using a gamepad
* keydrive -- node to control the robot using the keyboard

=== Subscribed topics ===
* /scout/motion (ScoutMotionMsg) -- reference velocities for each wheel (velocity_left and velocity_right) in raw units and an enable flag

=== Published topics ===
* /scout/battery (ScoutBatteryMsg) -- voltages (in V) of batteries (battery1) and external power supply (battery2)
* /scout/sonars (ScoutSonarsMsg) -- (DISABLED BY DEFAULT) array of sonar readings
* /scout/motors (ScoutMotorsMsg) -- encoder counter for each wheel (count_left and count_right) in raw units

== Examples ==

An example of a launch file to launch all scout nodes (locally)
<pre>
<launch>
<node name="motors" pkg="scout_driver" type="motors"/>
<node name="sensors" pkg="scout_driver" type="sensors"/>
<node name="joy" pkg="joy" type="joy_node"/>
<node name="joydrive" pkg="scout_driver" type="joydrive"/>
</launch>
</pre>
NOTE: you need to modify these file in order to launch the nodes remotely.

[[Image:Icon raposa.png|thumb|RAPOSA-NG]]

== About ==

This page presents instructions and software for our customized version of RAPOSA-NG.

For more information, please use the redmine page: http://rm.isr.ist.utl.pt/projects/raposa/wiki/Main_Page

== Access ==

To gain access to RAPOSA-NG session, svn network, etc:

<pre>Username: raposang
Password: raposa2011 </pre>

It is advisable to install ssh-server:

<pre>sudo apt-get install openssh-server</pre>

== Connect to RAPOSANG ros ==

Connect to the main AP using an ethernet cable with a static IP.

To configure a static IP for raposa AP, click on the Network icon in upper right desktop, then "Edit Connection -> Wired -> Add -> IPv4 Settings"

Pick Manual in Method and add a new IP with the following config:

'''Address:''' 192.168.0.15

'''Netmask:''' 255.255.255.0

'''Gateway:''' 192.168.0.250

Connect using this new connection.

Afterwards, edit your /etc/hosts and add the following line (might need sudo):

<pre>192.168.0.1 raposang</pre>

Open a new terminal and run both commands:

<pre>export ROS_HOSTNAME=sa</pre>

and

<pre>ROS_MASTER_URI=http://raposang:11311</pre>

== Software ==

All software needed for RAPOSA-NG control is preinstalled in RAPOSA-NG and stored in svn.

To download latest trunk version, please use the following command:

<pre>
svn co svn://svn.isr.ist.utl.pt/raposa/raposang/trunk/raposang_ros /home/raposa/ros
</pre>

== Usage ==

RAPOSA-NG uses two different battery sources for the electronics and motors, respectively. '''Please assure that both batteries have a buzzer attached while connected to RAPOSA-NG, and make sure that both batteries and Buzzers are detached from one another after usage.'''

Use the red button to power on/off the motors, and the green button to power on/off the electronics using batteries. The gray button is used to power on/off the CPU, and it can only be powered if either the green button is on with batteries attached, or an external feed is being used.

=== Stacks and Packages for ROS ===

RAPOSA-NG has dozens of stacks with multiple packages. The fundamental ones are:

* '''raposang_common:'''
** '''raposang_msgs:''' Common messages used by raposang packages.
** '''raposang_launch:''' Common launches used by raposang packages.

* '''raposang_control:'''
** '''raposang_drivers:''' Driver needed for RAPOSA-NG basic control and odometry readings.
** '''raposang_joy:''' Bridge for controlling RAPOSA-NG using the output from a joypad.

=== Nodes ===
* motors -- interfaces the motor controllers: sends motor velocity commands and receives encoder readings
* sensors -- interfaces the sonars (currently disabled) and the battery sensors
* joydrive -- node to control the robot using a gamepad
* keydrive -- node to control the robot using the keyboard

=== Subscribed topics ===
* /scout/motion (ScoutMotionMsg) -- reference velocities for each wheel (velocity_left and velocity_right) in raw units and an enable flag

=== Published topics ===
* /scout/battery (ScoutBatteryMsg) -- voltages (in V) of batteries (battery1) and external power supply (battery2)
* /scout/sonars (ScoutSonarsMsg) -- (DISABLED BY DEFAULT) array of sonar readings
* /scout/motors (ScoutMotorsMsg) -- encoder counter for each wheel (count_left and count_right) in raw units

== Examples ==

An example of a launch file to launch all scout nodes (locally)
<pre>
<launch>
<node name="motors" pkg="scout_driver" type="motors"/>
<node name="sensors" pkg="scout_driver" type="sensors"/>
<node name="joy" pkg="joy" type="joy_node"/>
<node name="joydrive" pkg="scout_driver" type="joydrive"/>
</launch>
</pre>
NOTE: you need to modify these file in order to launch the nodes remotely.

=== Oficina de Robótica ===

[[Image:Oficina de Robotica.png|thumb|300px]]

O objectivo principal desta actividade é, através da construção de um robô, familiarizar os participantes com vários aspectos ligados à Ciência e Tecnologia, tais como o controlo, as comunicações, a física, a matemática, a programação, a energia e autonomia.

Pretende-se que cada grupo de alunos monte e programe, a partir de um kit, um robô preparado para seguir uma pista, identificar “vítimas” pintadas sobre a pista, evitar obstáculos inesperados sobre a pista, e recuperar de interrupções de pista. Serão seguidas as regras do ''RoboCupJunior Search and Rescue'', que regem outras iniciativas semelhantes e competições de robótica de nível pré-universitário tanto a nível nacional como internacional.

O robô será montado com base num kit LEGO Mindstorms e num conjunto de sensores adicionais: acelerómetros para detectar rampas, magnetómetros para obter a orientação magnética do robô, e sensors de luzes para reconhecer os objectos pintados no chão. Neste estágio os alunos terão oportunidade de aprender um variado conjunto de conhecimentos, desde soldadura de componentes electrónicos, até à programação de um robô móvel.

No último dia da actividade será organizada uma competição com os robôs construídos.

== Localização ==

A actividade decorrerá no Instituto Superior Técnico (Alameda), na Torre Norte, piso 5, sala 5.21.

== Anúncios ==

# No dia '''22 de Julho''' o encontro é à '''entrada da Torre Norte''' do Instituto Superior Técnico, pelas '''9h30'''.

== Objectivos ==

=== Oficina de Robótica ===

O objectivo principal desta actividade é, através da construção de um robô, familiarizar os participantes com vários aspectos ligados à Ciência e Tecnologia, tais como o controlo, as comunicações, a física, a matemática, a programação, a energia e autonomia.

Pretende-se que cada grupo de alunos monte e programe, a partir de um kit, um robô preparado para seguir uma pista, identificar “vítimas” pintadas sobre a pista, evitar obstáculos inesperados sobre a pista, e recuperar de interrupções de pista. Serão seguidas as regras do ''RoboCupJunior Search and Rescue'', que regem outras iniciativas semelhantes e competições de robótica de nível pré-universitário tanto a nível nacional como internacional.

O robô será montado com base num kit LEGO Mindstorms e num conjunto de sensores adicionais: acelerómetros para detectar rampas, magnetómetros para obter a orientação magnética do robô, e sensors de luzes para reconhecer os objectos pintados no chão. Neste estágio os alunos terão oportunidade de aprender um variado conjunto de conhecimentos, desde soldadura de componentes electrónicos, até à programação de um robô móvel.

No último dia da actividade será organizada uma competição com os robôs construídos.

== Localização ==

A actividade decorrerá no Instituto Superior Técnico (Alameda), na Torre Norte, piso 5, sala 5.21.

O robô será montado com base num kit LEGO Mindstorms e num conjunto de sensores adicionais: acelerómetros para detectar rampas, magnetómetros para obter a orientação magnética do robô, e sensors de luzes para reconhecer os objectos pintados no chão. Neste estágio os alunos terão oportunidade de aprender um variado conjunto de conhecimentos, desde soldadura de componentes electrónicos, até à programação de um robô móvel.

No último dia da actividade será organizada uma competição com os robôs construídos.

== Localização ==

A actividade decorrerá no Instituto Superior Técnico (Alameda), na Torre Norte, piso 5, sala 5.21.

Welcome to SocRob RESCUE wiki page. This page introduces SocRob RESCUE, a team composed of volunteers, students, investigators and professors from ISR-IST for the RoboCup RESCUE major league.

== Introduction ==

This team appears as a joint of heterogeneous robots used in ISR-IST for a multitude of projects and research, aiming to not only participate in competitions using those same robots following the guidelines of RoboCup RESCUE, but develop research that contribute to the Urban Search and Rescue panorama as well. It follows the footprints from [[RESCUE]] and [[RAPOSA]] projects, in which a tracked wheel robot that served as prototype for [[RAPOSA-NG]] was fully developed.

Regarding this team focus, it tackles many issues regarding Human Computer Interaction, as aforementioned in project [[AuReRo]] (funded by FCT, 2010-2013):

''"Field robotics is the use of sturdy robots in unstructured environments. One important example of such a scenario is in Search And Rescue (SAR) operations to seek out victims of catastrophic events in urban environments. While advances in this domain have the potential to save human lives, many challenging problems still hinder the deployment of SAR robots in real situations. This project tackles one such crucial issue: effective real time mapping. To address this problem, we adopt a multidisciplinary approach by drawing on both Robotics and Human Computer Interaction (HCI) techniques and methodologies."''

== Current Members ==

* Rodrigo Ventura (Assistant Professor)
* Pedro Lima (Associate Professor)
* Filipe Jesus (MSc Degree, Scholarship)
* João Mendes (MSc Degree, Scholarship)
* Henrique Silva (MSc Degree, Scholarship)
* João O'neil (MSc Student, Volunteer)

== Robots ==

* [[RAPOSA]] (used only for demos);
* [[RAPOSA-NG]];
* Quadcopters from UAVision.

== Competitions ==

SocRob RESCUE first participation was with [[RAPOSA-NG]] only in '''Robocup German Open 2012'''. Although this was SocRob RESCUE first participation, it achieved '''5th place''' out of 12 different teams and '''2nd position''' at '''Best in Class: Mobility'''.

In this video, [[RAPOSA-NG]] stereo camera is being controlled using attitude readings from an Head Mounted Display for the '''Best-in-Class''' mission. This helps to achieve a more natural perception of the environment for the operator.

This team appears as a joint of heterogeneous robots used in ISR-IST for a multitude of projects and research, aiming to not only participate in competitions using those same robots following the guidelines of RoboCup RESCUE, but develop research that contribute to the Urban Search and Rescue panorama as well.

Regarding this team focus, it tackles many issues regarding Human Computer Interaction, as aforementioned in project [[AuReRo]] (funded by FCT, 2010-2013):

''"Field robotics is the use of sturdy robots in unstructured environments. One important example of such a scenario is in Search And Rescue (SAR) operations to seek out victims of catastrophic events in urban environments. While advances in this domain have the potential to save human lives, many challenging problems still hinder the deployment of SAR robots in real situations. This project tackles one such crucial issue: effective real time mapping. To address this problem, we adopt a multidisciplinary approach by drawing on both Robotics and Human Computer Interaction (HCI) techniques and methodologies."''

== Current Members ==

* Rodrigo Ventura (Assistant Professor)
* Pedro Lima (Associate Professor)
* Filipe Jesus (MSc Degree, Scholarship)
* João Mendes (MSc Degree, Scholarship)
* Henrique Silva (MSc Degree, Scholarship)
* João O'neil (MSc Student, Volunteer)

== Robots ==

* [[RAPOSA]] (used only for demos);
* [[RAPOSA-NG]];
* Quadcopters from UAVision.

== Competitions ==

SocRob RESCUE first participation was with [[RAPOSA-NG]] only in '''Robocup German Open 2012'''. Although this was SocRob RESCUE first participation, it achieved '''5th place''' out of 12 different teams and '''2nd position''' at '''Best in Class: Mobility'''.

In this video, [[RAPOSA-NG]] stereo camera is being controlled using attitude readings from an Head Mounted Display for the '''Best-in-Class''' mission. This helps to achieve a more natural perception of the environment for the operator.
