Program Structure

There are three branches of code:

• client: The Local server to communicate between the robot arm and the camera
• arm: This branch includes all the functions using for the robot, it communicates with the local server in the pair mode. It can send and receive message from local server.
• cam: The Kinect 360Xbox driven by freelibnect sends the rgb image to client in real-time in sub/pub mode. And it can send the depth image when client requests for it.

Demonstration of communication

In this project, the communication among the hardware is implemented by ZeroMQ (click the link for more information).
