Next week I am traveling, and we will have a guest lecturer on Thursday. Unfortunately, I have to cancel the group session. Due to this the deadline for the mandatory assignment is extended Tuesday the 22nd.
The problem with virtual machines on Mac is that Mac use another CPU architecture. It is might be possible to install an arm based Linux.
I would reccomend to use RoboStack

Please try it, and send me an e-mail on how it goes.
Mandatory assignment 1 has been out a week now, and this is just a friendly reminder that it is smart to start early working with it. Now we have covered all topics in mandatory assignment 1.
You find the assignment here
/studier/emner/matnat/its/TEK4030/h24/mandatory-assignments.html
The submission will be on Canvas.
I have created and uploaded a virtual machine that can be used VirtualBox. Hopefully this can be used on Mac systems as well. Please try this and come back to me with feedback. The virtual machine download link can be found here
Some of you had trouble with compiling planar_robot_simulator yesterday. I have downloaded and compiled this package on my own system and the virtual machine, and there were no problems. The fault might be something wrong in the configuration of CMakeLists.txt. If you can't find a solution, please send me an e-mail with the code attached, and I will look into this.
There are some issues running ROS, especially on Mac systems. I will look into this tomorrow, and see if I can find a solution.
The upcoming lecture will be a flipped classroom session. I have posted vidoes and tutorials in the schedule. P?l, the ITS engineer, will be present in the lecture room during the lecture hour to answer any questions. During the lecture you may complete the tutorials in groups or individually. I reccomend watching the lecture videos in advance.
Unfortunately, I have to cancel the upcoming lecture on Thursday due to travel. I was unfortunately not able to find a replacement.
