Using the AI Accelerator software

Installation and configuration of the software components of AI Accelerator on the robot should be performed in the following order:

1. Open AI Accelerator URCap and navigate to the Camera Configuration section. This shows a list of currently available cameras.

2. Tap the Add camera button to add a camera.

3. Select the camera type from the list. More camera types can be added via URCaps. Universal Robots provides URCap for the Orbbec camera.

4. The camera is now added and you should see the live feed from the camera.

You can remove the camera or calibrate it by tapping the buttons under the camera name.

In the bottom left corner you can see the status and IP address of the compute module.

1. Navigate to the Software Update section. This shows the current versions of URCaps.

2. Insert a USB drive with the new version of AI Acceleratorsoftware. For best performance you should use USB port inside the Control Box, not the USB port on the Teach Pendant.

   You can find the latest update on Centercode

3. Tap the Check for updates button and choose the .aiup file

4. Wait for the update to complete. This may take a while and AI Accelerator may need to restart more than once.

5. Navigate to the Software Update section to verify that the update was successful.

I can't see the live camera feed:

• Check that the IP address on the robot is set correctly

• Check that the cables are correctly connected

• Check that ROS2 is enabled and domain id set to 1

• Check that correct camera URCap is installed

• Check that the physical selector switch on the camera is set to the cable type you are using

• Restart PolyScope X
