Difficulty in Locating Rosmaster_Lib for ROSMASTER-R2 Example Code and Request for Documentation Update

Issue Description

While attempting to compile and build the example code for the ROSMASTER-R2 project, we encountered an issue where the code necessitated an import statement from Rosmaster_Lib import Rosmaster. The accompanying documentation directed us to a webpage for installing the Rosmaster driver library (Rosmaster driver library installation). However, this page references a "Rosmaster material download area," which appears to be non-existent.

Our efforts to locate the necessary library led us to discover this repository (ROSMASTER-R2 Annex), where the required file was found under an ambiguously labeled section. This discovery highlighted that the process outlined for setting up and running the example code is significantly outdated.

Suggested Improvements

  1. Update Documentation: Provide a clear and direct link to the necessary Rosmaster_Lib library.
  2. Ensure Accuracy: Make sure all referenced sections and download areas in the documentation are accurately labeled and accessible.
  3. Review Setup Instructions: Consider reviewing and updating the setup instructions to reflect the current software environment and user requirements.

Conclusion

The process to get the example code operational for the ROSMASTER-R2 could be greatly simplified with clearer documentation and updated links. This would significantly enhance the user experience for purchasers of the device, enabling them to start projects more efficiently.
