Below is the the Node structure of the packages when launched
Installation
We recommend running through our "Ubuntu 18.04 Computer Setup guide" on our docs page https://roverrobotics.com/pages/docs
This will install necessary systemd scripts (used for starting ROS on boot), udev rules (nice if you ever unplug your USB devices) and joystick drivers.
If you want to install this package in isolation you can do so with the following command
sudo apt-get install ros-melodic-rr-openrover-stack
Release Notes
This package is currently in pre-release meaning the code has been tested and is functional, but backwards compatibility is not guaranteed until v1.0.0, so make note of which version you are using and read the changelog carefully before updating.
