Create UI plugins for ros rqt to create a dashboard to show relevant information. This would include sensor data, mapping information, and battery information. There are some plugins that show some information currently, see ROS-Main/rover_ui_plugins. Ask Sid if you have any questions.

We use a toolkit called rqt which we write plugins for. Once ros is installed you can run rqt to bring up the menu, then add plugins from the toolbar at the top.

Our current plugins are in ROS-Main/rover_ui_plugins.

This is the general overview of rqt: http://wiki.ros.org/rqt
It's got some tutorials, I would recommend going through the python one. If you install ROS from the instructions on the ROS-Main github you should be all set
