Welcome to the RoboCup2021RVRL_Demo wiki!

!!THIS PAGE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION!!

In 2021, we will have the competition remotely, so we will use the Construct's cloud virtual computer service "the ROSject(ROS Development Studio)".
Now, the Technical Committee is creating the competition world for 2021 in the ROSject.
As a demonstration, we installed the github repository of the RoboCup Rescue Simulation Virtual Robot League 2019 Demo in the ROSject.

You can try the ROSject equipped the RVRL2019Demo by following the below steps.
The ROSject is a cloud virtual PC provided by the Construct.
You can use my sample ROSject very easily.

STEP 1: Create an account in the Construct, and login.  
STEP 2: In the left bar, select the "Public Rosject" icon.  
STEP 3: Search with keywords: "RVRL 2019 DEMO"  <= Input those keywords into "Name/Description" field.  
STEP 4: Find one named "RVRL 2019 DEMO" and its user name is "shimizu", and push "RUN".  
STEP 5: Wait for stopping the preparing phase, start a terminal and Gazebo by pushing their icons bottom of the window.  
STEP 6: In the terminal, type the following commands:  
    $ cd simulation_ws  
    $ source setup.bash  
    $ roslaunch rvrl_setup pre1-1_atr.launch  
STEP 7: After waiting for a while, you can see some robots and victims.  
STEP 8: You can control the robot with teleop_twist_keyboard.  

Currently, the Gazebo Client embedded in the ROSject has some issues.
In the RVRL 2019 DEMO ROSject, you can see the robots and victims, but can NOT see the wall.
But the camera embedded on the robots can see the wall, we can create some cameras in the world instead of the Gazebo Client.

We are preparing the tutorial world for 2021.
We will announce about how to develop your own robot client software with the RVRL2021 tutorial ROSject, here.
