Getting Started

This repository provides the essential documentation and getting-started instructions. The system was tested with V-REP_PRO_EDU_V3_4_0_Linux and O.S./Linux/Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. It should be also running with Windows and Mac. If you have question or encounter issue, use the issues section and look for similar issue, if nothing similar start new issue.

• Open the Project Link, and download it from clone or downloadslide-tool. OR open a terminal Ctrl+alt+t and type:

cd ~

git clone https://github.com/Abdul-UOiT/4280U-Robotics-Course.git

Now, you should have two folders: 1-V-REP and 2-4280U-Robotics-Course-master

Running the test

This step should start the simulation and create objects randomly.

1- Open a terminal, navigate to the extracted folder of V-REP and run it:

cd ~

cd V-REP_PRO_EDU_V3_4_0_Linux

./vrep.sh

You will have the main window of V-REP with empty scene, open new scene from the upper-left-side bar,

file--->open scene--->/path/to/4280U-Robotics-Course-master/scene/2UR5.ttt

2- Open new terminal and run the test python file create_obj.py

cd ~

cd 4280U-Robotics-Course-master

python create_obj.py

The simulation should start now...
