Robot Operating System Ros Tutorial (iii) New ROS tutorials

Before we introduce the characteristics and structure of ROS, we will begin to feel the strength of Ros. Ros website on the wiki for Beginners tutorial is very detailed, it is best to get all the novice tutorials are clear, this is behind the development of the most basic things. However, Ros for beginners is still very difficult to use, here, I would like to summarize the course of my study at that time, but also for other beginners as a reference.

I. The installation of ROS

The installation of Ros is, of course, the first step we've started, and the operating system we use here is Ubuntu because Ros is the best support for Ubuntu.

If you are a novice, I suggest using "Apt-get" method to install, do not walk is very simple, according to the wiki, about half an hour can be installed complete version of Ros: (now the latest version of Ros is groovy, but I still used to use Fuerte)
