A useful installation, by one of our developers (Mayank Mittal), to setup your ubuntu is available here. It might come in handy!

List of software we use frequently are as follows:

The list below has been updated as per the code version in December 2016.

1. Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Other versions might not support *)
2. Git
3. Sublime text 3 (Any other editor like vim can also be used, but this seems to fit the best)
4. ROS Indigo (In full desktop version, Gazebo 2 gets installed so uninstall that package after the complete installation *)
5. OpenCV 2.4.3
6. Arduino (won't work if you install from ubuntu store)
7. Gazebo 7 with ROS Indigo

List of ROS Packages required:

1. rosserial arduino

After above installation is complete, run the setup.sh script two times (first normally and then with sudo). After that execute the build.sh script.
