Sync Choregraphe and Matlab

Question

I have a Wizard of Oz experiment using Choregraphe to make a NAO perform certain tasks running on machine A. The participant interacting with the NAO also interacts with a machine B. When I start the experiment (in Choregraphe on machine A) I want a certain MATLAB script to start on machine BIe Choregraphe will initiate the MATLAB script.

Do you have any suggestions of how to do this? My programming are limited to that of MATLAB and R, while Choregraphe is well integrated with Python and C++ hence my question here on Stack.

Kind Regards, KD

Answer 1

Using NAO C++ SDK, it may be possible to make a MEX-FILE in Matlab that "listens" to NAO. Then NAO just has to raise an event in its memory (ALMemory) that Matlab would catch to start running the script.
