Right now, this code runs on a Jetson Nano from Nvidia. Here are a few basic details to help you get started.

  • The Jetson is running a version of ubuntu 18.04 provided by Nvidia. Info on the Jetson and the OS can be found here: https://developer.nvidia.com/embedded/learn/get-started-jetson-nano-devkit
  • The Jetson uses rc-local.service to run a script on startup which configures a few things including allowing non-root access to some serial devices and setting up the ethernet bridge connection. The startup script can be found in the sailbot home directory (run cd ~/), and is called startup.sh. To check the status of the startup service, you can use systemctl status rc-local.service.
  • The ROS 2 distribution currently being used is Dashing Diademata, and installation directions can be found here: https://docs.ros.org/en/dashing/Installation/Linux-Install-Debians.html
  • Username is "sailbot" and password is "admin"
