Operation Scenario  

Diagram  below  illustrates  the  typical  operation  scenario.  The  Jaguar  is  a  wireless  networked  outdoor  mobile 
robot. It comes with a wireless 802.11 AP/router.  The remote  host  controller PC  running  the  “Jaguar  Control” 
program connects to the Jaguar robot via: 

 

Network cable – Connect the robot on-board AP/router. (DO NOT connect to the WAN port), or 

 

Wireless – To connect the host controller PC to the on-robot wireless AP/router, configure the host PC’s 
wireless  settings  using  the  default  wireless  configuration  settings  found  in  the  Network  Connection 
session of this manual. 

Human operator carrying the host controller PC could use the head-mounted display (accessory option) and the 
included  game-pad  controller  in  outdoor  environment  to  monitor  and  control  the  operator  under  any  outdoor 
lighting  environment,  even  under  direct  sunshine.    The  included  “Jaguar  Control”  program  will  therefore  be 
projected on the head-mounted display, where you could see all the sensor information from the robot, and the 
video streamed from the camera on robot (Please refer to “Jaguar Control program” session for detail). 

 

 

Typical Operation Scenario 

Note: The host controller PC running the “Jaguar Control” program could be mounted on the robot instead off the 
robot if your application requires so.  

Software Installation 

Jaguar  Control  programs,  application  development  library  and  supporting  documents  could  be  found  from  the 
Jaguar software CD. 

On the host controller computer, you should install the following programs from the installation CD: 

 

“Jaguar Control” program -  installed  by the Setup.exe from CD 

 

Google Earth program - could be downloaded from http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html. 

Please follow its installation instruction. 

 

Axis camera SDK – installed from CD
