Documentation description does not match files on kuri #26

Closed mm-nasr closed 5 years ago

The documentation provided does not reflect what is actually present on Kuri. I am unable to access vision through any of the methods provided. Even the documentation or webrtc speaks of files that do not exist. Is there any way I can get to the source code so I can use the robot for development? All provided packages are already executables. I tried using kuri_edu package and it gives errors in running.

@MahmoudNasr95 can you be more specific? Do you have an example of such files that you couldn't find?

I don't know of anybody with access to the source code at this point, all we can do is provide volunteer support based on the software you have on your robot.

For kuri_edu: I tried running the kuri_edu.launch file which is the first check mentioned in the kuri_edu documentation. That gives an error that the v4l2 buffers cannot be requested as the Device or resource is busy.

For webrtc: I can't find the following file as shown from the documentation: screenshot from 2019-02-04 14-18-51

If there is some way to access the camera and microphone without the given packages, that would do the trick for me.

Thanks for the feedback. The path to the example files was indeed wrong, please see #27 for the fix. It should be merged soon.

The kuri_edu problem is a very different issue. Likely, you are trying to run it while the robot software is still running, which won't work.

Please try sudo service gizmo stop and then try the kuri_edu example again.
