## Installation ##

Install **ROS Hydro** on a compatible **Ubuntu** distro following the official instructions provided [here](http://wiki.ros.org/hydro/Installation/Ubuntu).

For **ROS Indigo** use the [**indigo-devel**](https://github.com/AaronMR/Learning_ROS_for_Robotics_Programming_2nd_edition/tree/indigo-devel) branch.

For **ROS Jade** use the [**jade-devel**](https://github.com/AaronMR/Learning_ROS_for_Robotics_Programming_2nd_edition/tree/jade-devel) branch.

Install the OpenCV non-free repository:
``` bash
sudo add-apt-repository --yes ppa:xqms/opencv-nonfree
sudo apt-get install libopencv-nonfree-dev libopencv-nonfree2.4
```

Create a workspace:
``` bash
mkdir -p ~/dev/catkin_ws/src
cd ~/dev/catkin_ws/src
wstool init
```

Download this repository:
``` bash
wstool set ros_book --git git@github.com:AaronMR/Learning_ROS_for_Robotics_Programming_2nd_edition.git
wstool up -j8
```

Install the dependencies:
``` bash
cd ..
rosdep install --from-paths src -iy
```

Build the source code (alternatively, you can use `catkin build` instead of `catkin_make`):
``` bash
source /opt/ros/$(rosversion -d)/setup.bash
catkin_make -j4
source devel/setup.bash
```
