OPEN-R SDK installation instructions on Ubuntu 18.04

  1. Open terminal and install required packages.
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt-get install git flex
  2. Clone the aibo_ers7 GitHub repository.
    git clone https://github.com/sheilaschoepp/aibo_ers7.git
  3. Enter the aibo_ers7/sony directory, setup file permissions and complete the OPEN-R SDK installation.
    cd aibo_ers7/sony
    chmod a+x build-aibo-toolchain-3.3.6-r3.sh
    sudo ./build-aibo-toolchain-3.3.6-r3.sh

To verify the OPEN-R SDK installation, compile and run a sample program by following the instructions on page 4 of "Testing_OPEN-R_Samples_for_Sony_AIBO_ERS-7.pdf" in the aibo_ers7/tutorials folder.

Walking Program Installation Instructions

  1. Download and unpack openr_neural_controller.tar.gz and nets.tar.gz. <path_to_folder> will refer to the directory where you have unpacked these files.
  2. Insert a Sony memory stick into a memory card reader that is plugged into your machine.
  3. In terminal, go to the memory stick's directory. On my ubuntu 18.04 machine, this is in /media//<memory_card_id>.
  4. Prepare the media stick with the OPEN-R SDK. Use the wconsole memory protection option.
    cp -rf /usr/local/OPEN_R_SDK/OPEN_R/MS_ERS7/WCONSOLE/memprot/* .
  5. Move the contents of openr_neural_controller/OPENR to the OPEN-R folder on your memory stick.
    cd OPEN-R (you should be in the MS/OPEN-R directory)
    cp -rf <path_to_folder>/openr_neural_controller/OPENR/* .
  6. Move the contents of nets to the /MW/DATA/P folder.
    cd MW/DATA/P (you should be in the MS/OPEN-R/MW/DATA/P folder)
    cp -rf <path_to_folder>/nets/* .
  7. Eject the memory stick and insert into the AIBO.
