Detailed Description

$ICUB_ROOT/app/ stores directories which group sets of configuration files and scripts to run a certain group of modules together.

Each one of them is what we call an application. In other words, an application is an instantiation of a set of modules that run at the same time.

Some of these applications are iCub capabilities, others might just be nice demos or experiments.

Documentation for each application goes in each directory.

Ideally these directories will contain only scripts and ini/txt files. Use src to store source code.
