Revision history [back]

Hey,

You will want to run a single roscore that both robots use. The instructions on running ROS multiple machines should be a good place to start looking into this: http://wiki.ros.org/ROS/Tutorials/MultipleMachines

It is very easy to do once you can get an ssh connection between the robots.

Hope that helps

Henry
