In other words, robot-playerjoy allows you to manually drive your (physical or simulated) robot around. robot-playerjoy uses velocity control, and so will only work when the underlying driver supports velocity control (most drivers do). .SH OPTIONS .TP .B -v verbose mode. Print the Player device state on stdout. .TP .B -3d connect to position3d interface (instead of position). .TP .B -c continuously send commands. .TP .B -n don't send commands or enable motors (for debugging). .TP .B -k use keyboard control (instead of joystick device). .TP .B -p print out speeds on the console. .TP .B -udp use UDP instead of TCP (deprecated, currently disabled). .TP .BI "-speed " speed maximum linear speed in meter per second (default: 0.5). .TP .BI "-turnspeed " speed maximum angular speed in degrees per second (default: 60). .TP .BI "-dev " device joystick device file the joystick is connected to (default: /dev/js0). .SH AUTHOR .B Player was written by Brian Gerkey and contributors.
