This package uses asionet and Boost 1.66 which are both included in the vendor directory. Since Boost doesn't use CMake, you have to compile it manually. Assuming your working directory is the root directory of this repository, please run the following commands to compile Boost from source:

$ cd vendor/boost_1_66_0
$ ./bootstrap.sh
$ ./b2 

This package provides two nodes:

• sender_node: Subscribes the topics /motor and /servo and sends that data over UDP to address and port given by the parameters receiver_address and receiver_port.
• receiver_node: Publishes received data over topics /motor and /servo.

In order to prevent your remote controlled robot from uncontrolled movement when connection is lost, there's an extra parameter receiver_timeout used to publish value 0.0 on the /motor when no data is received after the given timeout.

In addition, remote_control_gui.py implements a primitive GUI written in pygame to use the arrow keys for sending remote control commands.
