Problem Statement

Robots are systems of multiple processes (sensors, controlscontrollers, communication devices, actuators, etc...) running simultaneously and asynchronously. These processes usually often communicate via a shared medium consisting of multiple channels where each process can , allowing processes to publish and subscribe to different channels. Robotic each channel. When debugging, researchers need to be able to monitor this information for debugging purposes while at the same time, while still being sufficiently mobile on the arena to be able to so that they can interact with the robots. The current interface

Current interfaces available for communication systems such as LCM is are neither user-friendly, intuitively intuitive, visible, efficient since its output is an array of floats nor mobile since it runs on a computeror efficient. Moreover, these interfaces are not mobile since they run on desktop computers. The goal of this project is to design and implement an easy-to-use mobile graphical interface in the form of a phone-app for interaction with robots when experimenting with themrobotic systems.
