Hi.I have seen your video on YouTube, I have some questions.How do you control the OWI-535 robot through a laptop? Do you need some other hardware support?

Yes, you need a USB interface. You can refer to this issue for more details.

FengHaobo commented 5 years ago

And except a USB interface, there are other hardware that is necessary

zfw1226 commented 5 years ago

The USB interface is enough to connect to and control the robot. Besides, a USB camera and a laptop with GPU are necessary to run the vision-based pose estimation.
