Note that the prairiedog platform uses the more advanced visualization_cu for user interaction.

nav_view_cu is a minimalistic OpenGl based substitute for an early release of nav_view (circa ROS V0.8) . It can be used to interact with a basic robot in a limited number of ways, including setting pose and goal positions. We initially wrote nav_view_cu because the netbooks used on the prairidog robotic platform do not have graphics cards, and therefore cannot run the Ogre graphics library, or any code that depends on it.

nav_view_cu does not currently use the tf package, and may therefore not be advanced enough for many newer ROS applications. Future updates may include this functionality (especially if we find that it is in demand).
