Sim Robot
----------------------------------------------------


Summary
================

     This service creates a simulation environment of a large room with a 
Pioneer robot and LRF inside it.  The service implements the SimplePosition 
generic contract by constantly polling the simulation environment for the 
position of the Pioneer robot base.  



Installing
================

     Extract the service to: 
C:\Microsoft Robotics Studio (1.5)\samples\SimRobot.  This service 
requires the RoboticsCommonExtras service which should be placed at: 
C:\Microsoft Robotics Studio (1.5)\samples\RoboticsCommonExtras.  The 
included VS solution for SimRobot contains both projects.  Open the 
SimRobot VS solution, compile and run.



Usage
================

     You can subscribe to SimplePosition and get notified at 15 Hz with the 
robots position, or do a Get on it and receive the exact position from the 
simulator.  (See Mapper service for application).
