AI_camp_python

This repo was tested on Raspberry pi 3B+ as a computer for student.

Ros setup

Follow this instruction http://wiki.ros.org/ROSberryPi/Installing%20ROS%20Kinetic%20on%20the%20Raspberry%20Pi

Note: To avoid the memory exhaustion problem on Raspberry pi 3B+, you should increase swap memory before catkin_make. I set it to 1024M.
