Connect and play – Euclid OOBE - Web interface Intel® Euclid™ offers a unique out-of-the-box experience by providing a “zero-installation” approach for first time users. As you will turn on your device, you will be able to connect to it wirelessly and control it from any device you own. Follow the steps below: 1. Turn on the device by clicking the ON/OFF button for 3-4 seconds. 2. Wait for 30 seconds 3. On your personal device (laptop/tablet/smartphone), connect to the wireless network (SSID) with the prefix “Euclid” 4. Open the browser and enter the URL: http://cs.local a. On Android devices, you will need to enter the full IP - http://10.42.0.1/ This will open the main portal for the Euclid™ device. In this website you can monitor the device status, create, edit and launch different scenarios and change configuration. 1.3. The Web interface - Overview 1.3.1. Portal: 1.3.2. System status: This part provides basic monitoring for the device’s state. Including Wifi status, connected USB devices etc. 1.3.3. Scenarios This page allows to configure scenarios, create new scenarios, start/stop scenarios and remove existing scenarios. A scenario is the heart of the control interface of Euclid™. The concept is that a scenario is an experience or an application. A scenario is first defined by that experience. In order to create a scenario, you only need to enter a name and select the underlying nodes. All the selected nodes will run when the scenario will be launched. Once the nodes are running, they can be configured via the configuration interface (see Configuration page). Moreover, the communication with the robot can be selected (ROS native –turtlebot – or general serial Arduino connection) and even the pose of the Euclid device with respect to the robot. At a whole a scenario is defined by a set of nodes running together, their respective configurations, the pose of the device with respect to the robot (URDF) and the underlying communication (native ROS robot or Arduino based interaction). For example, a turtlebot follower scenario can be created by selecting to run the camera node, follower node and choose the native ROS robot. Only one scenario can run at a time. A scenario can be marked as “run on startup”. This will cause the system to load that specific scenario as the system starts. A running scenario is marked in Green rectangle. The basic functionality: Create a scenario: In order to create a new Scenario, simply check the nodes you want to use under the “Create new scenario:” title, enter a scenario name and click on the “Create new scenario” button. Once clicked, you will see a new scenario appears above under the “Current Scenarios”. Remove a scenario: In order to remove an existing scenario, simply mark one of the “current scenarios” and click on the Remove selected. Run a scenario: Only one scenario can run at a time. Select a scenario from the current scenarios and click on “Run selected”. Stop a scenario: In order to stop a running scenario, simply click on the “Stop Running” button. Since only one scenario can run at a time, no need to check the scenario. Activate Scenario: To set a scenario as the one that will run as default when the system starts, you need to set it as the “Active” scenario. Simply select a scenario from the current scenarios and click on “Activate selected” button. Deactivate Scenario: To un-set a scenario as the one that will run as default when the system starts,s imply select a scenario from the current scenarios and click on “Deactivate selected” button. Save Configuration: Once you created a scenario and you set it as running, you can start configuring it. (See Nodes Configuration page). Once you configured the nodes, you can click on “Save configuration”. Next time this scenario will load, it will load this configuration. 1.3.4. Nodes Status: This part provides basic monitoring functionality. All the Nodes should be Green, meaning they are running. If one is done, this may cause unexpected behavior. You should try relaunching the scenario or in a more extreme cases try to restart the device. You can also check the system log page to get more information what is the root for this behavior. Green = running as expected Red = not running You will see only nodes that are part of the current running scenario (see Scenario section) 1.3.5. Monitor In this page you will be able to view different previews. Each monitoring app can be turned on or off via the dedicated button on the top of the page. Please note that turning a monitor app does not run the underlying camera or algorithm. This needs to be done first via a scenario 1.3.6. Nodes Configuration Each node in the system can be configured independently. For example, camera node can be configured with different white balance values. You will need simply to choose the desired node from the list and the available parameters will appear. Once you changed the values of one or several parameters, click on the “update”. The changes are being updated instantly in the system. 1.3.7. Arduino This section provides an interface to regenerate libraries for the Arduino device and to download it to the PC. First button will start the regeneration (takes few sections) Once done, click on the “Download library” button to get a zip file. This file needs to be extracted to Arduino IDE libraries directory. 1.3.8. Wireless Settings This section allows the user to connect to another WLAN or to enable the hotspot. Please note the known issues 1.3.9. System Log Under the system log page you can get a glimpse of what is going “under the hood”. 1.4. Remote Work – Once you got it all settled in, you can take the work to the next level by remotely connect to the device and have a more tight interaction. There are several options, but first make sure the device is working and you are connected to it: 1. Turn on the device by clicking the ON/OFF button for 3-4 seconds. 2. Wait for 30 seconds 3. On your personal device (laptop/tablet/smartphone), connect to the wireless network (SSID) with the prefix “Euclid” 1.4.1. VNC The Euclid device runs by automatically a VNC server, so by connecting to its’ hotspot and running a VNC client, you will be able to remotely work on your Euclid. 1. Launch VNC client on your device 2. Enter the device’s IP - 10.42.0.1 3. Et Voila! 1.4.2. SSH Since Euclid runs Linux, you can use SSH natively. On another Linux machine simply type: ssh1.5. Local Work – HUB Another possibility is to use Euclid as computer by connecting a screen, a keyboard and a mouse. Just connect all the wires and you are set to go. Easy as that. 1.6. Connect Euclid to an external network Euclid, by default, is running a hotspot. You can configure Euclid to connect to an external network. Follow those steps (future version will include a web interface option): 1. Connect Euclid to a terminal (See Section 1.5) 2. Call: a. rosservice call /cs/network/scan b. rosservice call /cs/network/list Verify that the SSID you want it listed. c. rosserivce call /cs/network/connect “ssid:’ ’ password:’ ’ “ d. rosservice call /cs/restart_oobe e. run ifconfig* in order to get device’s IP *see section 1.7 1.7. Euclid IP Discovery Euclid publish its IP address in order to be identified on network. Publishing is done by standard multicast system so message can be consumed by any multicast receiver. Following is example on how to consume message with your mobile phone: 1. On your phone install multicast app such as ‘Multicast Tester’ for example. 2. Connect your phone to same network as the one your Euclid device is connected. 3. Open the multicast application on your phone: a. Multicast IP: 224.1.1.100 b. Multicast Port: 10000 c. Stat Listening to multicast messages. d. Messages will appear with the corresponding Euclid hostname and its IP address. ** Discovery app will show every Euclid device that is connected to the specified network. *** See Wiki for sample multicast client code. 1.8. Working with a ROS companion machine In case you have an existing ROS machine there are two options working with the Euclid device: 1.8.1. Euclid as a master Euclid is running a ROS Core on it by default. Simply configure your client device to connect to Euclid’s Hotspot and follow those steps: 1. Configure the ROS_MASTER_URI to 10.42.0.1 (the Euclid’s IP on its own hotspot) a. $> export ROS_MASTER_URI=10.42.0.1 2. Run ifconfig to get you IP addres and set it to ROS_IP: a. $> export ROS_IP= 1.8.2. Euclid as a ROS device Euclid can be configured to connect to existing an ROS Master device. In order to do so, first configure Euclid to connect to the desired wireless network (see section 1.6), then follow the steps below: 1. 2. 3. Connect to the web interface Navigate to the system settings page Change the ROS MASTER URI 1.9. Working with and Arduino Device Euclid comes with a native support for Arduino, based on ros_bridge, ros_serial and ros_arduion. In general, Euclid sends data to the companion Arduino device via serial interface (USB or Bluetooth). There are many examples how to use ROS and Euclid directly from Arduino. In order to user Euclid with an Arduino follow the following steps: 1. On a device with Arduino IDE installed, connect to the Web interface (see section 1.2) 2. Navigate to the Arduino page an click on “Generate a new library” After few seconds you will get a notification to download the library to your machine. Download it. 3. Open the IDE and click on the import .zip library: 4. Select the downloaded ZIP library and follow the instructions on the IDE. 5. To get started, you can choose any of the provided samples: 1.10. Adding a new ROS package to Euclid You can add a new package to Euclid by any of the following: 1. Installing a deb from apt-get or another source 2. Compile directly on the device Once you have a working ROS package on Euclid, follow those steps to add it to the web interface: 1. 2. 3. Open this page on your client device: http://10.42.0.1/AddNewNode.html Follow the instructions Restart OOBE via the web or restart the device 1.11. Update Euclid SW In order to update Euclid SW stack: 1. Connect the Euclid device to a screen/keyboard/mouse (see section 1.5) 2. Copy the given update.tr.gz in the follosing path: /intel/euclid_update 3. Call the update service: rosservice call /euclid/update_version 4. Done. You can see the version number in /intel/euclid/config/version.ini. a. If there was an issue, you can verify the log at /intel/euclid_update/LOG.txt 4.
