Funny Things

funny-things is a repository which contains, among other funny things, a set of modules for easy scripting and execution of non-interactive (pre-programmed) demos. These modules (funnyPostures, iCubBlinker and iCubBreather) are devised to perform a set of actions, including moving, "breathing", blinking, face expressions, etc, which can be easily handled through rpc commands. It might be useful to automatize the management of these modules not directly from such rpc commands, but through the use of bash (.sh) scripts, which allow easy synchronization, ordering and test of these calls so that they can be predefined for particular demos.

Step-by-step guide

  • Clone https://github.com/robotology/funny-things
  • Compile the project
    • cd into the repo folder (./funny-things)
    • mkdir build
    • ccmake ../
    • make
    • make install
  • Open icubDemoScripts (or icubDemoScriptsSIM to work on the simulator) template, adapt them and save as apps.
  • Open or create a new script file (.sh) and modify or add any commands to suit your demo needs.
  • Set robot environment (start robot or run yarpserver and iCub_SIM on simulator).
  • Open the icubDemoScripts (or icubDemoScriptsSIM ) app and launch and connect modules.
  • On the terminal, go to the ./funny-things/app/scripts/shells folder.
  • Run any desired command from the command line as ./<scriptname>.sh <command> - eg ./isp-movements welcome
