/// Central class for communicating with and operating the robot
/** 
    This is the most important class. It is used to communicate with
    the robot by sending commands and retrieving data (including
    wheel odometry, digital and analog inputs, sonar data, and more). 
    It is also used
    to provide access to objects for controlling attached accessories, 
    ArRangeDevice objects, ArAction objects, and others.  For details
    on usage, and how the task cycle and obot state synchronization works,
    see the @ref robot "ArRobot section" and the
    @ref ClientCommands "Commands and Actions section" of the ARIA overview.

    @note In Windows you cannot make an ArRobot object a global variable, 
    it will crash because the compiler initializes the constructors in
    the wrong order. You can, however, make a pointer to an ArRobot and then
    allocate it with 'new' at program start.
