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 Robo
This post will tell you the installation instructions for NetAnim Software in Ubuntu.
NS3 is a discrete event simulator similar to ns2 and both vary depends on the languages in which they were used.
NS3 uses C++ with optional Python bindings, whereas ns2 uses OTCL with C++.
The ns2 comes with a default network animator called nam and it will be there in the allinone package of ns2. But ns3 does not have any default animator, but there is a support from the NetAnim.
NetAnim is a software that process the xml files for graphical output which are generated through ns3.
Method 1:
NetAnim can be downloaded from the URL http://code.nsnam.org/jabraham3/netanim-3.104
Method 2:
However, ubuntu or debian or Linux Mint solves this problem through apt-get itself.

- OS Used: Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit
- NS3 Version (ns-3.20)
See this post to install ns3: http://www.nsnam.com/2013/09/ns3-installation-in-linux-mint-14-64bit.html
pradeepkumar@pradeepkumar~$ sudo apt-get install NetAnim
The above command is case sensitive (NetAnim)
To run once its installed
pradeepkumar@pradeepkumar:~$ NetAnim file.xml
if you already has a file.xml.
