...Read MoreLong BaseLine underwater acoustic positioning.
...Read MoreDeveloped at MIT for the DARPA Urban Challenge in 2006, Lightweight Communications and Marshalling (LCM) is a message passing system that uses a publish/subscribe scheme. Data signals are broadcast to all available clients and specific clients subscribe to a given set of signals as necessary.
...Read MoreA visual marker on a 2D navigational chart.
...Read MoreThe vehicle's average velocity.
...Read MoreMan Overboard. A special purpose shortcut that marks the vehicle's current location on the map.
...Read MorePrimary Communications. "Primary Communications", or PCOMMS, in openSEA parlance refers generally to the traditional communications from a topside operator interface to the subsea system.
...Read MorePower Distribution Unit.
...Read MoreA vehicle's rotation about the Y axis. For example the vehicle will 'nose' up or down.
...Read MoreA vehicle's rotation about the X axis. This can be seen in body tilt from side to side.
...Read MoreThe allowed space that is predefined between the vehicle and a waypoint that is considered to be arrival.
...Read MoreUser Interface. The means by which a user and system interact.
...Read MoreUltra Short BaseLine underwater acoustic positioning.
...Read MoreThe rate of change of an object's position.
...Read MoreA plotted point assigned as a destination marker for vehicle's path.
...Read MoreThe vehicle's rotational about it's Z (vertical) axis.
...Read MoreOn the compass rose, the compass points north in the graphic display. This is only a graphical display change for the operator's viewing convenience.
...Read MoreThe timestamp is a UNIX timestamp that displays with all the device feeds. This timestamp is especially important for log files. A user can go back to view log activity with timestamp references.
...Read MoreLAN stands for Local-Area Network.
...Read MoreUDP stands for User Datagram Protocol. It is an Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) transport layer protocol.
...Read MoreRS232 is a serial communication protocol. The connection is through a serial port like a DB9. One device can be connected through each port. This protocol is typically used over fairly short distances.
...Read MoreConfiguration has to be done using windows utility.
Get xinput_calibrator
Assuming you have installed and run xinput_calibrator, now you need to map the input to output for your dual monitors. This is not a calibration, that part is done. This step tells the desktop's graphical interface what input ID goes to what output. Open a command prompt and type xinput.
...Read MoreMaking a disk image of your computer means that it is an exact copy. So first you need to surf through your system and remove things you don't want present on the new machine.
...Read MoreWe use chrony to synchronize the clocks of computers over a network.
$ apt-get install chrony
If you're running on an disconnected network you will have to manually download then install the chrony package.
$ aptitude download chrony timelimit
...Read MoreThe Zero button calibrates the vehicle depth relative to a specific depth. If you want your zero depth to be set to something other than the default reading, press Zero and the scale will recognize the current vehicle read as zero.
...Read MoreAcceleration refers to the speed change in an x, y and z direction of the vehicle's travel.
...Read MoreAttitude refers to the behavior of the vehicle in flight about the three dimensions of the vehicle's center of mass.
...Read MoreSelecting Pan allows the vehicle operator to change map views. This feature allows the vehicle to be panned off the screen as long as the Center On button is not selected. If this button is selected the vehicle must remain the center of the map view.
...Read MoreLBL is Long Baseline underwater acoustic positioning. Long baseline systems determine the position of a vehicle by acoustically measuring the distance from a vehicle interrogator to three or more baseline transponders
...Read MoreAn Inertial Measurement Unit (
...Read MorePCOMMS stands for Primary Communications. PCOMMS in openSEA parlance refers generally to the traditional communications from a topside operator interface to the subsea system.
...Read MoreYAML Ain't Markup Language (.yml file format) is a data serialization language which is both human readable and computationally powerful. Greensea uses the markup language for text-based configuration files in the openSEA system.
...Read MoreopenCMD is the Greensea proprietary software control application for the openSEA Suite. The application provides station keeping, autopilots, route following, and dynamic positioning for ROVs and AUVs.
...Read MoreopenDEVICE is Greensea's proprietary openSEA software device server for sensors and actuators that provides data management, communication, forwarding, time-stamping, and aggregation.
...Read MoreopenINS is Greensea's proprietary openSEA software-based Inertial Navigation System.
...Read MoreopenMNGR is a high-level supervisory application that coordinates mission planning, execution, and monitoring. openMNGR provides a solution for complex route planning, surveys, search grids, sonar-based target tracking, task management, and full vehicle autonomy.
