This guide assumes you already followed the steps here Getting started.
For example, to show the camera feed of the robot:
In the demo_nao_camera.py make sure to adjust the ip adress to the ip adress of your robot. If you press the chest button of the robot it will tell you it’s ip adress. Ensure you are on the same network as the robot, and then you are good to go!
To start the camera demo from the terminal, use the following commands.Note: it might take some time to start the demo file if the SIC

SIC is a framework for quickly getting started with social robotics by making it simple to combine complex devices such as Nao’s and powerful services such as Google Dialogflow.
Installation
You can find the instructions on how to install the framework here: Install has never been installed on the robot.

API
The goal of SIC is to provide easy to use high level access to devices and services. To For example, to make a NAO robot say something, follow the startup instruction in https://socialrobotics.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CBSR/pages/2180415493/Install#Starting-SIC-on-the-Robot and run the following python script on your laptop.!
