Hi guys,

For the robotic fans of you, here's a small tutorial I've written in order to install ROS on N900.

http://www.ros.org/wiki/N900ROS

ROS stands for Robotic Operating System, is an open source robotic framework, brought to you by Willow Garage guys who provide PR2 robot (see it playing pool... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMx1xW2E4Gg). N900 has a lot of interesting features in this context, like wifi, bluetooth, infra-red connections, accelerometer, GPS, rather good computing power, possibly USB host, etc... it can be a part of robotic platform.


Cheers,
Seb
