[sudo-discuss] sudodesk robot tools

I’ve symlinked 3 robot-related tools into /usr/local/bin on sudodesk. The new commands are motocommand, motomessage, and motodisk. They are under development and can break, but if you want to try them you should. Here’s how: 1. Get people away from the robot 2. Turn on the robot with the black rotatey-dial thing on the top left of the robot cabinet door. 3. Press the “REMOTE” button on the right side of the robot console. 4. On sudodesk, type the following (including quotes): motocommand “SVON 1” The robot will growl appropriately as the servos come on. 5. Now on sudodesk, type the following (including quotes): motocommand “START DEMO" Currently the robot job called DEMO is really slow and unimpressive. Maybe someone could make it wave around perilously… or play the marimba (gently)! We could make a converter that turns midi streams into robot motion. If you want less exciting stuff, try the above steps, but instead of step 4, type: motomessage “MUST KILL HUMANS” The robot will show up to 23 characters of your snarky input.
