Video or picture tutorials? Which do you find more useful?
Starting with a complete 3d printed Inmoov, this is what I am starting with for a series of tutorials.
Giving the robot vision, a voice, hearing, and personality.
Connecting 2 raspberry pi's to work together, also two instances of MRL communicating with each other.
OpenCV running on one.
Program A/B and MaryTTS running on the other.
My intention is to make these as simple to follow and understand as possible, with newcomers in mind.
Any suggestions or comments are welcome.

Video - A picture is worth a 1000 words, a video is worth 32 * 1000 per second words

I suggest you make the 'short' and sweet ... We have some nice videos, but as the software changes - they become obsolete or incorrect.
ALWAYS ALWAYS - include the version # in the video - maybe in text, definately at the beginning ..
Think of a title before you make it .. like "Running MRL for the First Time - version XXXX)"
Explain there are 2 versions - one for stable and one for the wild at heart ... - show the links
Download it - say you need to have Java 1.8
Double clicky no worky ?
Drop to the command line java -jar myrobotlab.jar
Here's the version
If something doesnt work - go to myrobotlab.org and talk to the friendly folks there ..
The "length" to do all those things is probably enough to make 1 standalone video.
Remember as generations and time progresses .. attention spans decline ;)
RE: Multiple Pi's running inmoov with MRL
@ShanHolt do you have block of a bit more on this. I am also looking to running with multiple PI's and want to get a better idea as to how people are setting this up successfully. Much appreciated.
