Installation of NS2 in Fedora 12

The ns2 version taken here is 2.34, if you downloaded any other version, please modify your version during installation

1)Uncompress the ns2

tar zxvf ns-allinone-2.34.tar.gz
or
gzip -d ns-allinone-2.34.tar.gz
tar xvf ns-allinone-2.34.tar

2) cd /opt/ns-allinone-2.34 (since /opt is the folder which is unused, so i have selected that folder to install, however you can install that in any folder)

3) ./install (execute the command)

4) If the installation fails in the middle, then try to install the linux packages that are necessary to run NS2. (In any linux (ubuntu or fedora or redhat or suse), install the TCL/TK, Perl packages during the installation of linux…)

5) Once the installation succeeded, then the path information will be provided by the NS2

6) Set the path in the /root/.bash_profile
(vi /root/.bash_profile)

or
If you are a user home/pradeep/.bash_profile (for example, if your the username is pradeep, then execute this command vi /home/pradeep/.bash_profile)
7) set the PATH and the LD_LIBRARY_PATH as per the output screen by NS2. (See the Video given below)

8. logout and login.

9) go to the terminal and try ns  (you will get a % symbol indicating that the installation is Successful)

10) for running the examples comes along with the distribution of NS2
cd /opt/ns-allinone-2.34/ns-2.34/tcl/ex

11. This is how you will see once the ns2 installation is success, from this information, you can put the PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable..

Simulation of URDF, Gazebo and Rviz | ROS Noetic Tutorial 8

Design a User-defined robot of your choice (or you can use the URDF file) and enable the LIDAR Scanner so that any obstacle placed on the path of the light scan will cut the light rays. Visualize the robot in the Gazebo workspace, and also show the demonstration in RViz.   (NB: Gain knowledge on wiring URDF file and .launch file for enabling any user-defined robot to get launched in the gazebo platform.) SLAM : One of the most popular applications of ROS is SLAM(Simultaneous Localization and Mapping). The objective of the SLAM in mobile robotics is to construct and update the map of an unexplored environment with the help of the available sensors attached to the robot which will be used for exploring. URDF: Unified Robotics Description Format, URDF, is an XML specification used in academia and industry to model multibody systems such as robotic manipulator arms for manufacturing assembly lines and animatronic robots for amusement parks. URDF is especially popular with users of the ...
