About

This page presents instructions and software for our customized versions of Nomadic Scouts. This customization was performed by IdMind and includes new electronics. The use of this robot requires an external laptop for running the main software. The driver nodes are launched using roslaunch.

Software

The source code can be found here: ros_scout-2.0.tgz.

All software was extensively in Ubuntu 12.04 and ROS Hydro (under rosbuild). Compatibility over different versions may not be guaranteed.
