I needed to connect my Arduino and Edison through serial connction.
First of all run the Arduino IDE an get the library “Rosserial” version 1.7.8 (for ROS Lunar). Upload the sketch:

Joystick and Intel Edison
The Ubilinux doesn’t have the joydev module. I don’t know why. Correspondingly, we can’t start the xboxdrv program. There are two ways to fix this problem. The first one: you have to download the following kernels-headers for Yocto:

wget https://communities.intel.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadBody/23882-102-1-28238/linux-headers-3.10.17-poky-edison_3.10.17-poky-edison-1_i386.deb.zip wget https://communities.intel.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadBody/23884-102-1-28268/linux-libc-dev_3.10.17-poky-edison-1_i386.deb.zip |
and then compile by yourself with the command:

make -C /lib/modules/3.10.17-poky-edison/build M=$PWD |
Connect the Kinect v. 2.0 to UP board
I have been waiting fo a long time a mobile device which is able to receive the data from the Kinect v. 2.0 (XBox One). The device must have a USB 3.0 port. Finally I found the board on Kickstarter. Its name is UP Board.

The teaching a robot to speak
We installed Ubilinux and ROS on our Intel Edison board. Now we’ll study some features, which The Robotics Operation System gives us. Today we explore the sound play module.

The ROS install to the OS Ubilinux
I told you how to install the OS Ubilinux on the Intel Edison board in the last post. I need this system for using the ROS (Robotic Operation System). I also need some functions which doesn’t included to the standard comm version:
- communication between Edison and Arduino Mega through serial port (UART)
- receiving frames from USB-camera and transmitting them with OpenCV support
- getting gamepad commands (XBox or DualShock)
- creating custom message types
