Setting Up Your Robot in MOV.AI Flow™

MOV.AI Flow™ enables you to design the behavior of any robot, whether it exists in the real world or is only a simulation.

Click one of the links below for a quick workflow for setting up any type of robot –

  • A Husky, Panda or Tugbot robot. MOV.AI Flow provides the drivers for these robots as a subflow in MOV.AI Flow. MOV.AI Flow provides a simulation in Gazebo Fortress for the Husky and Tugbot robots.
  • A robot simulation that you have in Gazebo Fortress
  • A robot simulation that you will build
  • A real physical robot that you have

Setting Up a Simulated Robot

Here's a quick overview of the steps for setting up a simulated robot –

  1. Build your simulated robot, as described in Building a Simulated Robot.
  2. Add this robot to a simulated world, as described in Building a Simulated World.
  3. Create the robot's drivers so that the robot interacts with ROS and MOV.AI Flow, as described in Robot Drivers.
  4. Design the Application Flow, meaning define the behavior of your robot in MOV.AI Flow.

Setting Up a Real Physical Robot

Here's a quick overview of the steps for setting up a real physical robot –

  1. Design the drivers to control the real physical robot, as described in Real Robot ROS Drivers.
  2. Design the Application Flow, meaning define the behavior of your robot in MOV.AI Flow.

Setting Up a Husky, Panda or Tugbot Robot

MOV.AI Flow™ provides the drivers for operating a real and a simulated Husky and Tugbot robot.
