Full Build Instructions
These instructions showcase the installation procedure for Turtlebots pre-loaded with software and using the SR300 Developer Kit by Creative. For the newer Turtlebot2i kits that come with the SR305 camera by Intel, refer to the installation guide here. As an FYI, the only difference between these two camera models is the housing, but the module inside is the same.

- You will need to place the following at the bottom of your ~/.bashrc file
- Edit .bashrc with your choice of editor ( gedit, nano, vi )
- Be sure to replace example.hostname with your computer's hostname
source /opt/ros/kinetic/setup.bash
alias goros='source devel/setup.sh'
export ROS_HOSTNAME=example.hostname
export TURTLEBOT_3D_SENSOR=astra
export TURTLEBOT_3D_SENSOR2=sr300
export TURTLEBOT_BATTERY=None
export TURTLEBOT_STACKS=interbotix
export TURTLEBOT_ARM=pincher

rosrun astra_camera create_udev_rules
cd ~/turtlebot2i/src/turtlebot2i_misc
gedit 99-turtlebot2i.rules

At this point we need to execute a couple commands that will return the serial number for the ArbotiX and the Kobuki. Remove and/or Re-plug both the Arbotix and the Kobuki USB cables and ensure they are powered on before running these commands:
-
udevadm info -a -n /dev/ttyUSB0 | grep '{serial}' | head -n1
-
udevadm info -a -n /dev/ttyUSB1 | grep '{serial}' | head -n1
-
The output from these commands are the serial numbers used to fill in the blanks of lines 6 and 7 of the 99-turtlebot2i.rules file.
sudo cp ./99-turtlebot2i.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/
