Accessing The Robot API From Outside
Hello. I am planning to use this robot to teach some students about robot programming skills. For this reason, I don't want them to use the built-in functionalities offered by ARC, instead I want them to work on their own algorithms (object tracking, for example). In order to do this, I need access to the robot from the outside, e.g. Python scripts executed from PyCharm making use of OpenCV and custom libraries. Ideally I would like them to be able to use an API to access the camera image, retrieve it, process it with their own code and send back motor commands to the robot. Is this at all possible with this product?
Thanks!

oh and this might be useful for our convo: https://synthiam.com/Support/Create-Robot-Skill/Examples/Example-Camera-Custom-Tracking-Type
I am preparing a robotics course for a postgraduate class. They are advanced programmers and need to implement some navigation algorithms in Python to move a robot around (and maybe some ML for object detection / classification). I need a solution which is as much as plug-and-play as possible and which can allow them to write their own code: I understand that ARC has a lot of stuff already implemented, but I want my students to do the work and not just to rely on magic boxes.
From the information I've gathered up to now, I'm starting to think that this robotic platform is not the most suited for my needs, but please let me know if I'm wrong in assuming this.
