NAME

       robot-playerjoy - console-based client for teleoperation

SYNOPSIS

       robot-playerjoy [options] <host:port> [<host:port>]

DESCRIPTION

       robot-playerjoy	is  a console-based client that provides planar, differential-drive teleoperation of position2d and position3d devices. In
       other words, robot-playerjoy allows you to manually drive your (physical or simulated) robot around. robot-playerjoy uses velocity control,
       and so will only work when the underlying driver supports velocity control (most drivers do).

OPTIONS

       -v     verbose mode. Print the Player device state on stdout.

       -3d    connect to position3d interface (instead of position).

       -c     continuously send commands.

       -n     don't send commands or enable motors (for debugging).

       -k     use keyboard control (instead of joystick device).

       -p     print out speeds on the console.

       -udp   use UDP instead of TCP (deprecated, currently disabled).

       -speed speed
	      maximum linear speed in meter per second (default: 0.5).

       -turnspeed speed
	      maximum angular speed in degrees per second (default: 60).

       -dev device
	      joystick device file the joystick is connected to (default: /dev/js0).
