{{{#!wiki red/solid
This information dates back to where it was used on Turtlebot 1 and PR2 in fuerte, groovy and experimental hydro. Aot of it is still useful, but also much outdated now - particularly the android sections. If you'd like to update to doing things on hydro, especially for Turtlebot 2, start at the [[rosjava]] and [[android]] pages as well as the [[rocon_app_platform]].

== Quick Start ==

If you are looking to interact with a robot using android, install the [[ApplicationsPlatform/Clients/Android|Android Client]]. See below for detailed documentation.

== Overview ==

The applications platform allows users to interact with contained demos and utilities called "applications". These applications allow users to easily share and interact with demos and software.
