Installing the Software on NUC

Installation

These steps were tested on the Intel NUC provided with the assembly kit

  • Install Ubuntu 16.04

  • Download the installation script

sudo apt update
sudo apt-get install curl
curl 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/facebookresearch/pyrobot/master/robots/LoCoBot/install/locobot_install_all.sh' > locobot_install_all.sh
  • Run the script to install everything (ROS, realsense driver, etc.). Please connect the nuc machine to a realsense camera before running the following commands.
chmod +x locobot_install_all.sh 
./locobot_install_all.sh

Warning: As realsense keeps updating, compatibility issues might occur if you accidentally update realsense-related packages from Software Updater in ubuntu. Therefore, we recommend you not to update any libraries related to realsense. Check the list of updates carefully when ubuntu prompts software udpates.
