A user may wish to use SSH with Tor for any number of reasons. To do this, download and install ~~connect.c~~ (above) and then add this line to your SSH configuration:

Terminal

localhost:~ $ nano ~/.ssh/config

Compression yes # this compresses the SSH traffic to make it less slow over tor

ProxyCommand connect -5 -R remote -S localhost:9050 %h %p

After this has been added to the SSH configuration, a user can simply ssh myserver to be routed through Tor to the hidden service (or clearnet server). This can also be done with proxychains, but the ProxyCommand directive is a permament solution.

ROS on Android Phone

Finaly done with ROS(Robotic Operating System) on android

It was my 1 day work for getting an output from android to ROS Server .I will explain the procedure that i have done

Prerequisites:

1)android-sdk for linux -Refer the following site for manually download android component .Othervice you have to setup eclipse for doing it

http://www.hariadi.org/android/manual-download-of-android-sdk-components/

2)platform-tools-This is the most required thing in this installation operation

http://www.hariadi.org/android/manually-download-of-android-sdk-tools-and-sdk-platform-tools/

Procedure:

1)Download android stack from ROS website

http://ros.org/wiki/android

2)There is a README file in this stack describing the installation procedure .But there will some error when you follow it

Note :The error i got the installation operation is with adb

Starting of adb is like follows

#./adb kill-server

#./adb start-server

#./adb devices

It will print if the device is connected

#./adb shell

Set the Link path of python from README file

Change the link path according to your android path .Othervice it will show error

It is better to install Pythonforandroid and sl4a manually .

Set the adb path in .bashrc file on home folder

eg :export ADB=~/android-sdk/platform-tools/adb

After installation using make install command

You have to enter

$make cv_module

$make ros_sample

After that you have to take pythonforandroid and press importmodule option

It will show cv.egg ,select and install it

Connect android phone and computer though a wifi network ,preferably through a router .

Take ros.py from sl4a script folder .Run it

It will ask for ROS_MASTER_URI ,for URI you have to note the IP of computer which running roscore .For eg:My system IP was 192.168.1.2 So theURI is

eg : ROS_MASTER_URI=http://192.168.1.2:11311

URI=http://IP:11311

Note:i have some issues in importing cv .So i commented the cvsection and working only on accelerometer ,vibrate ,speak functions

Here is the edited ros.py

# ROS on Android

# Sample ROS node

# Distributed Multimodal Information Processing Group

# http://vmi.lmt.ei.tum.de

from ros_android import *

import time

# load needed ROS packages

import roslib

import rospy

from std_msgs.msg import String

from std_msgs.msg import Int16

from sensor_msgs.msg import Image

#from cv_bridge import CvBridge, CvBridgeError

#import cv

# callback for /mobile/say

def cb_say(data):

rospy.loginfo(“I should say: %s”, data.data)

droid.makeToast(data.data)

droid.ttsSpeak(data.data)

# callback for /mobile/vibrate

def cb_vibrate(data):

droid.vibrate(data.data)

def main():

print “main()”

cam = CamHandler()

pub = rospy.Publisher(‘/mobile/acceleration’, String)

rospy.init_node(‘android’)

rospy.Subscriber(‘/mobile/say’, String, cb_say)

rospy.Subscriber(‘/mobile/vibrate’, Int16, cb_vibrate)

# start sensor polling in background

droid.startSensing()

while not rospy.is_shutdown():

# read the accelerometer and store result

acc = droid.sensorsReadAccelerometer().result

# if new sensor values have arrived, output them

if isinstance(acc[0], float):

# acc_str = “%s – Acc: %f %f %f” % (rospy.get_time(), acc[0], acc[1], acc[2])

acc_str = “X:%f Y:%f Z:%f” % (acc[0], acc[1], acc[2])

else:

# acc_str = “Time: %s – No acc. values” % rospy.get_time()

acc_str = “No values.”

rospy.loginfo(acc_str)

pub.publish(String(acc_str))

rospy.sleep(1.0)

# start-up main

main()

Here is the output

Energy efficiency is a major theme at CES, and Westinghouse is leading the way with a new line of 8 LED HDTVs that range in size from 24 to 55 inches. Only about 1 inch thick, these sets have a high-gloss black frame complemented by red accents for a graceful, modern look. For an extra visual touch, the acrylic neck of each model’s included stand is illuminated with an understated red glow light.

As for the green, all eight models meet or exceed Energy Star 4.0 ratings, which go in effect in the second quarter of 2010. Moreover, six out of eight exceed Energy Star 5.0 ratings, which go into effect in 2012. The line is spearheaded by the 55-inch LD-55F970Z (above), which offers 1080p resolution, a 6-ms response time, a 120-Hz refresh rate, and judder removal for flicker-free performance.

“We are very excited to introduce our new LED HDTV line,” says Rey Roque, Vice President of Marketing at WDE. “Westinghouse Digital is committed to do our part to help the environment by producing a full line of energy-saving, eco-friendly HDTVs at a great price for the consumer. Our new LED HDTVs provide the same slim, energy efficient and sexy styling of more expensive LED sets at a price that the average consumer can afford.”
