Hello, I have a question, are mobile robots made with ros only controlled by computers with ros? here is a github code I use and when I get messages like '1','2','3' with tcpip using this code, there are places where I send my robot. But the code I use from Github works with ros. Is it possible to communicate without ros in tcp ip communication? How can I send my robot to certain coordinates with a non-ros device? Is there a research path you can direct me to? Thanks

Thank you for your interest and guidance. I did some research on google but first thing I want is actually can we create this server_node.cpp node with ros in it and run client_node.cpp node without ros? Thus, when the button is pressed on the opposite interface (windows, tablet or something else), I will be able to receive one of the "1","2","3" messages that will come to server_node.cpp and use it for my own autonomous actions. @gvdhoorn
