Mini-Lab packages installation

After Creating your catkin_ws and the src folder, download the Mini-Lab packages from the GitHub repository: https://github.com/Enova-Robotics/Mini-Lab

For ROS Indigo and later you should install some packages before compiling the workspace.

$ sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-gmapping ros-indigo-navigation ros-indigo-robot-state-publisher ros-indigo-move-base ros-indigo-amcl ros-indigo-hokuyo-node ros-indigo-depthimage-to-laserscan ros-indigo-joy ros-indigo-openni-camera ros-indigo-rqt-image-view

To start using the Mini-Lab simulation, you should copy the following packages folders in the package directory catkin_ws/src/ in the workstation:

minilab_demo_simulation
