   Code Block
   language bash
   mkdir -p catkin_ws/src cd catkin_ws/src

3. Initialize the workspace using the Catkin tool.
   

   Code Block
   language bash
   catkin_init_workspace

4. Compile.

   cd .. catkin_make

5. Set up workspace environment.
   

   Code Block
   language bash
   source devel/setup.bash

   
   
6. Launch the slamware_ros_sdk_server_node node. Select the corresponding IP according to the mode.

   Code Block
   language bashcpp
   roslaunch slamware_ros_sdk slamware_ros_sdk_server_node.launch ip_address:=10.6.128.141 // Station mode // If in AP mode, the IP address is 192.168.11.1

7. Open another terminal, repeat step 5, and start the teleop_twist_keyboard_node node. Follow the prompts and use the W/S/A/D keys to control the robot to move forward/backward/left/right accordingly.
