Hi @jimingda

The tutorial tutorial_gaze-interface is different from tutorial_cartesian-inteface in that it cannot run on the physical robot because of the intrinsic limitations of the visual pipeline.

The tutorial consists of 3 modules:

  • the tracker, which can actually run on the real iCub as it is.
  • the mover, which is responsible for moving the ball within the simulator (thus, you won't need it in a real settings).
  • the detector, representing the visual pipeline that is very naive per se and won't be definitely working in a real scenario.

Something close enough to this tutorial is the "famous" Red Ball demo we usually showcase once we deliver the robot.
