Note: This version will not try to automatically determine your local IP address. You must specify it using the -l flag. This was to get around a restriction where the robot will not connect to the computer if the IP address is not in the same subnet as the robot. You are now able to connect to a remotely hosted ROS endpoint. This is useful if you want to run the robot from a remote location and control it from your computer.
