+# OpenArms Robot
+
+OpenArms is a 7 DOF robotic arm with a gripper, designed by [Enactic, Inc.](https://www.enactic.com/) It uses Damiao motors controlled via CAN bus communication and MIT control mode for smooth, precise motion.
+
+## Hardware Overview
+
+- **7 DOF per arm** (14 DOF total for dual arm setup)
+- **1 gripper per arm** (2 grippers total)
+- **Damiao motors** with 4 different types:
+  - **DM8009** (DM-J8009P-2EC) for shoulders (J1, J2) - high torque
+  - **DM4340** for shoulder rotation and elbow (J3, J4)
+  - **DM4310** (DM-J4310-2EC V1.1) for wrist (J5, J6, J7) and gripper (J8)
+- **24V power supply** required
+- **CAN interface device**:
+  - **Linux**: Any SocketCAN-compatible adapter
+  - **macOS**: CANable, PEAK PCAN-USB, or Kvaser USBcan
+- Proper CAN wiring (CANH, CANL, 120Ω termination)
+
+
+## Motor Configuration
+
+Each arm has the following motor configuration based on the [OpenArm setup guide](https://docs.openarm.dev/software/setup/):
+
+| Joint | Motor | Motor Type | Sender CAN ID | Receiver ID | Description |
+|-------|-------|------------|---------------|-------------|-------------|
+| J1 | joint_1 | DM8009 | 0x01 | 0x11 | Shoulder pan |
+| J2 | joint_2 | DM8009 | 0x02 | 0x12 | Shoulder lift |
+| J3 | joint_3 | DM4340 | 0x03 | 0x13 | Shoulder rotation |
+| J4 | joint_4 | DM4340 | 0x04 | 0x14 | Elbow flex |
+| J5 | joint_5 | DM4310 | 0x05 | 0x15 | Wrist roll |
+| J6 | joint_6 | DM4310 | 0x06 | 0x16 | Wrist pitch |
+| J7 | joint_7 | DM4310 | 0x07 | 0x17 | Wrist rotation |
+| J8 | gripper | DM4310 | 0x08 | 0x18 | Gripper |
+
+For dual arm setups, the left arm uses IDs 0x09-0x10 for joints 1-8 with the same motor types.
+
+## Quick Start 
+
+```bash
+# Install system dependencies
+sudo apt install can-utils iproute2
+
+# Install LeRobot with OpenArms support
+pip install -e ".[openarms]"
+```
+
+## Setup Guide
+
+### Step 1: Motor ID Configuration
+
+**IMPORTANT**: Before using the robot, motors must be configured with the correct CAN IDs.
+
+Refer to the [OpenArm Motor ID Configuration Guide](https://docs.openarm.dev/software/setup/motor-id) for detailed instructions using the Damiao Debugging Tools on Windows.
+
+Key points:
+- Each motor needs a unique **Sender CAN ID** (0x01-0x08)
+- Each motor needs a unique **Receiver/Master ID** (0x11-0x18)
+- Use the Damiao Debugging Tools to set these IDs
+
+### Step 2: Setup CAN Interface
+
+Configure your CAN interface as described in the [OpenArm CAN Setup Guide](https://docs.openarm.dev/software/setup/can-setup):
+
+#### Linux (SocketCAN)
+
+```bash
+# Find your CAN interface
+ip link show
+
+# Configure can0, 1, 2, 3
+sudo ip link set can0 down
+sudo ip link set can0 type can bitrate 1000000
+sudo ip link set can0 up
+
+sudo ip link set can1 down
+sudo ip link set can1 type can bitrate 1000000
+sudo ip link set can1 up
+
+sudo ip link set can2 down
+sudo ip link set can2 type can bitrate 1000000
+sudo ip link set can2 up
+
+sudo ip link set can3 down
+sudo ip link set can3 type can bitrate 1000000
+sudo ip link set can3 up
+
+# Verify configuration
+ip link show can0
+```
+
+or run:
+
+`examples/openarms/setup_can.sh`
+
+### Testing canbus and motor connection
+
+Please run this script to check if all motors can be found and to find your can-fd speed: `python examples/openarms/debug_can_communication.py`
+
+## Usage
+
+### Basic Setup
+
+
+```python
+from lerobot.robots.openarms import OpenArmsFollower
+from lerobot.robots.openarms.config_openarms_follower import OpenArmsFollowerConfig
+
+# Configure for dual arm setup
+config = OpenArmsFollowerConfig(
+    port="can0",
+    can_interface="socketcan",  # Or "auto" for auto-detection
+    id="openarms_dual",
+    is_dual_arm=True,
+)
+
+robot = OpenArmsFollower(config)
+robot.connect()
+```
+
+### Calibration
+
+On first use, you'll need to calibrate the robot:
+
+```python
+robot.calibrate()
+```
+
+The calibration process will:
+1. Disable torque on all motors
+2. Ask you to position arms in **hanging position with grippers closed**
+3. Set this as the zero position
+4. Ask you to move each joint through its full range
+5. Record min/max positions for each joint
+6. Save calibration to file
+
+### Reading Observations
+
+The robot provides comprehensive state information:
+
+```python
+observation = robot.get_observation()
+
+# Observation includes for each motor:
+# - {motor_name}.pos: Position in degrees
+# - {motor_name}.vel: Velocity in degrees/second  
+# - {motor_name}.torque: Motor torque
+# - {camera_name}: Camera images (if configured)
+
+print(f"Right arm joint 1 position: {observation['right_joint_1.pos']:.1f}°")
+print(f"Right arm joint 1 velocity: {observation['right_joint_1.vel']:.1f}°/s")
+print(f"Right arm joint 1 torque: {observation['right_joint_1.torque']:.3f} N·m")
+```
+
+### Sending Actions
+
+```python
+# Send target positions (in degrees)
+action = {
+    "right_joint_1.pos": 45.0,
+    "right_joint_2.pos": -30.0,
+    # ... all joints
+    "right_gripper.pos": 45.0,  # Half-closed
+}
+
+actual_action = robot.send_action(action)
+```
+
+### Gripper Control
+
+```python
+# Open gripper
+robot.open_gripper(arm="right")
+
+# Close gripper  
+robot.close_gripper(arm="right")
+```
+
+## Safety Features
+
+### 1. Maximum Relative Target
+
+Limits how far a joint can move in a single command to prevent sudden movements:
+
+```python
+config = OpenArmsFollowerConfig(
+    port="can0",
+    # Limit all joints to 10 degrees per command
+    max_relative_target=10.0,
+    
+    # Or set per-motor limits
+    max_relative_target={
+        "right_joint_1": 15.0,  # Slower moving joint
+        "right_joint_2": 10.0,
+        "right_gripper": 5.0,   # Very slow gripper
+    }
+)
+```
+
+**How it works**: If current position is 50° and you command 80°, with `max_relative_target=10.0`, the robot will only move to 60° in that step.
+
+### 2. Torque Limits
+
+Control maximum torque output, especially important for grippers and teleoperation:
+
+```python
+config = OpenArmsFollowerConfig(
+    port="can0",
+    # Gripper torque limit (fraction of motor's max torque)
+    gripper_torque_limit=0.5,  # 50% of max torque
+)
+```
+
+Lower torque limits prevent damage when gripping delicate objects.
+
+### 3. MIT Control Gains
+
+Control responsiveness and stability via PID-like gains:
+
+```python
+config = OpenArmsFollowerConfig(
+    port="can0",
+    position_kp=10.0,  # Position gain (higher = more responsive)
+    position_kd=0.5,   # Velocity damping (higher = more damped)
+)
+```
+
+**Guidelines**:
+- **For following (robot)**: Higher gains for responsiveness
+  - `position_kp=10.0`, `position_kd=0.5`
+- **For teleoperation (leader)**: Lower gains or disable torque for manual movement
+  - `manual_control=True` (torque disabled)
+
+### 4. Velocity Limits
+
+Velocity limits are enforced by the Damiao motors based on motor type. For DM4310:
+- Max velocity: 30 rad/s ≈ 1718°/s
+
+The motors will automatically limit velocity to safe values.
+
+## Teleoperation
+
+### Leader Arm Setup
+
+The leader arm is moved manually (torque disabled) to generate commands:
+
+```python
+from lerobot.teleoperators.openarms import OpenArmsLeader
+from lerobot.teleoperators.openarms.config_openarms_leader import OpenArmsLeaderConfig
+
+config = OpenArmsLeaderConfig(
+    port="can1",  # Separate CAN interface for leader
+    id="openarms_leader",
+    manual_control=True,  # Torque disabled for manual movement
+    is_dual_arm=True,
+)
+
+leader = OpenArmsLeader(config)
+leader.connect()
+
+# Read current position as action
+action = leader.get_action()
+# action contains positions for all joints in degrees
+```
+
+### Safety Considerations for Teleoperation
+
+1. **Use separate CAN interfaces** for leader and follower to avoid conflicts
+2. **Enable max_relative_target** on follower to smooth abrupt movements
+3. **Lower torque limits** on follower to prevent damage from tracking errors
+4. **Test with one arm** before enabling dual arm teleoperation
+5. **Have emergency stop** ready (power switch or CAN disable)
+
+```python
+# Recommended follower config for teleoperation
+follower_config = OpenArmsFollowerConfig(
+    port="can0",
+    max_relative_target=5.0,  # Small steps for smooth following
+    gripper_torque_limit=0.3, # Low torque for safety
+    position_kp=5.0,  # Lower gains for gentler following
+    position_kd=0.3,
+)
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Motor Shaking/Unstable
+
+- **Lower control gains**: Reduce `position_kp` and `position_kd`
+- **Check calibration**: Re-run calibration procedure
+- **Verify power**: Insufficient current can cause instability
+- **Check mechanical**: Loose connections, binding, or damaged components
+
+### CAN Bus Errors
+
+```bash
+# Check for errors
+ip -s link show can0
+
+# Reset CAN interface
+sudo ip link set can0 down
+sudo ip link set can0 up
+```
+
+### Control Mode
+
+OpenArms uses **MIT control mode** which allows simultaneous control of:
+- Position (degrees)
+- Velocity (degrees/second)
+- Torque (N·m)
+- Position gain (Kp)
+- Velocity damping (Kd)
+
+### Communication
+
+- **Protocol**: CAN 2.0 at 1 Mbps (or CAN-FD at 5 Mbps)
+- **Frame format**: Standard 11-bit IDs
+- **Update rate**: Typically 50-100 Hz depending on motor count
+- **Latency**: ~10-20ms per motor command

+OpenArms Policy Evaluation with Real-Time Chunking (RTC)
+
+Evaluates a trained policy on the OpenArms robot using RTC for smooth, continuous motion.
+RTC enables large flow-matching policies (Pi0, Pi0.5, SmolVLA) to produce reactive motion
+despite high inference latency by asynchronously generating action chunks.
+
+Features:
+- Thread-based asynchronous action generation and execution
+- RTC for smooth transitions between action chunks
+- Dataset recording for evaluation episodes
+
+Example usage:
+    python examples/openarms/evaluate_with_rtc.py
+
+    # With custom RTC parameters
+    python examples/openarms/evaluate_with_rtc.py \
+        --rtc.execution_horizon=12 \

+OpenArms Policy Evaluation with RTC + Interpolation
+
+Combines Real-Time Chunking (RTC) with smooth action interpolation:
+- RTC for reactive motion despite high inference latency
+- Action interpolation for smooth robot movements
+- Speed multiplier to execute faster than training
+- Velocity feedforward and PID tuning
+- Decoupled inference (async) from robot control
+
+Example usage:
+    python examples/openarms/evaluate_with_rtc_interpolation.py
+
+    # With custom RTC parameters
+    python examples/openarms/evaluate_with_rtc_interpolation.py \
+        --rtc.execution_horizon=12 \
+        --rtc.max_guidance_weight=10.0

+OpenArms End-Effector Replay Example with Visualization
+
+Replays a dataset recorded with absolute joint positions by:
+1. Converting joint positions to EE poses using FK
+2. Converting EE poses back to joint positions using IK
+3. Sending joint commands to the robot OR visualizing in simulation
+
+Supports three modes:
+- real: Send commands to physical robot
+- sim: Visualize in simulation only (no robot required)
+- both: Real robot + visualization
+
+Example usage:
+    python examples/openarms/replay_ee.py --mode sim
+    python examples/openarms/replay_ee.py --mode real
+    python examples/openarms/replay_ee.py --mode both --visualizer meshcat

+# OpenArms Web Recording Interface
+
+A web interface for recording OpenArms datasets.
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+cd examples/openarms_web_interface
+npm install
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+**Start everything with one command:**
+
+```bash
+./launch.sh
+```
+
+This will:
+- Start the FastAPI backend on port 8000
+- Start the React frontend on port 5173
+- Show live logs from both services
+
+Then open your browser to: **http://localhost:5173**
+
+**Stop with:** `Ctrl+C`
+
+---
+
+## Workflow
+
+1. **Configure CAN interfaces** and **camera paths** in the dropdowns
+2. Click **"Setup Robots"** to initialize (once at start)
+3. Enter a **task description**
+4. Click **"Start Recording"** to begin an episode
+5. Click **"Stop Recording"** when done
+6. Dataset is automatically encoded and uploaded to HuggingFace Hub as **private**
+7. Repeat steps 3-6 for more episodes (no need to re-setup robots!)
+

+RaC (Recovery and Correction) Data Collection for OpenArms Robot.
+
+This implements the RaC paradigm from "RaC: Robot Learning for Long-Horizon Tasks
+by Scaling Recovery and Correction" (Hu et al., 2025) for LeRobot with OpenArms.
+
+RaC improves upon standard data collection (BC) and prior human-in-the-loop methods
+(DAgger, HG-DAgger) by explicitly collecting recovery and correction behaviors:
+
+The workflow:
+1. Policy runs autonomously (teleop is idle/free)
+2. Press SPACE to pause - teleop moves to match robot position
+3. Press 'c' to take control - teleop is free, human provides RECOVERY + CORRECTION
+4. Press → to end episode (save and continue to next)
+5. Reset, then do next rollout
+
+Key RaC Rules:
+- Rule 1 (Recover then Correct): Every intervention = recovery + correction (both human)
+- Rule 2 (Terminate after Intervention): Episode ends after correction
+
+The recovery segment (teleoperating back to good state) is recorded as training data -
+this teaches the policy how to recover from errors.
+
+Keyboard Controls:
+    SPACE  - Pause policy (teleop mirrors robot, no recording)
+    c      - Take control (teleop free, recording correction)
+    →      - End episode (save and continue to next)
+    ←      - Re-record episode
+    ESC    - Stop recording and push dataset to hub
+

+
+# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
+
+## Our Pledge
+
+We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in our
+community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
+size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender
+identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status,
+nationality, personal appearance, race, caste, color, religion, or sexual
+identity and orientation.
+
+We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming,
+diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our
+community include:
+
+* Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people
+* Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences
+* Giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback
+* Accepting responsibility and apologizing to those affected by our mistakes,
+  and learning from the experience
+* Focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the overall
+  community
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior include:
+
+* The use of sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or advances of
+  any kind
+* Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
+* Public or private harassment
+* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email address,
+  without their explicit permission
+* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
+  professional setting
+
+## Enforcement Responsibilities
+
+Community leaders are responsible for clarifying and enforcing our standards of
+acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair corrective action in
+response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive,
+or harmful.
+
+Community leaders have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject
+comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are
+not aligned to this Code of Conduct, and will communicate reasons for moderation
+decisions when appropriate.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when
+an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces.
+Examples of representing our community include using an official email address,
+posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
+representative at an online or offline event.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement at
+hi_public@reazon.jp.
+All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.
+
+All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the
+reporter of any incident.
+
+## Enforcement Guidelines
+
+Community leaders will follow these Community Impact Guidelines in determining
+the consequences for any action they deem in violation of this Code of Conduct:
+
+### 1. Correction
+
+**Community Impact**: Use of inappropriate language or other behavior deemed
+unprofessional or unwelcome in the community.
+
+**Consequence**: A private, written warning from community leaders, providing
+clarity around the nature of the violation and an explanation of why the
+behavior was inappropriate. A public apology may be requested.
+
+### 2. Warning
+
+**Community Impact**: A violation through a single incident or series of
+actions.
+
+**Consequence**: A warning with consequences for continued behavior. No
+interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction with
+those enforcing the Code of Conduct, for a specified period of time. This
+includes avoiding interactions in community spaces as well as external channels
+like social media. Violating these terms may lead to a temporary or permanent
+ban.
+
+### 3. Temporary Ban
+
+**Community Impact**: A serious violation of community standards, including
+sustained inappropriate behavior.
+
+**Consequence**: A temporary ban from any sort of interaction or public
+communication with the community for a specified period of time. No public or
+private interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction
+with those enforcing the Code of Conduct, is allowed during this period.
+Violating these terms may lead to a permanent ban.
+
+### 4. Permanent Ban
+
+**Community Impact**: Demonstrating a pattern of violation of community
+standards, including sustained inappropriate behavior, harassment of an
+individual, or aggression toward or disparagement of classes of individuals.
+
+**Consequence**: A permanent ban from any sort of public interaction within the
+community.

+      transformation or translation of a Source form, including but
+      not limited to compiled object code, generated documentation,
+      and conversions to other media types.
+
+      "Work" shall mean the work of authorship, whether in Source or
+      Object form, made available under the License, as indicated by a
+      copyright notice that is included in or attached to the work
+      (an example is provided in the Appendix below).
+
+      "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
+      form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
+      editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
+      represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
+      of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain

+      the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
+
+      "Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including
+      the original version of the Work and any modifications or additions
+      to that Work or Derivative Works thereof, that is intentionally
+      submitted to Licensor for inclusion in the Work by the copyright owner
+      or by an individual or Legal Entity authorized to submit on behalf of

+      designated in writing by the copyright owner as "Not a Contribution."
+
+      "Contributor" shall mean Licensor and any individual or Legal Entity
+      on behalf of whom a Contribution has been received by Licensor and

+      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
+      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+      copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
+      publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
+      Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
+
+   3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,

+      (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
+      use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
+      where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
+      by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
+      Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
+      with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
+      institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
+      cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
+      or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
+      or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
+      granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
+      as of the date such litigation is filed.
+
+   4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
+      Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
+      modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
+      meet the following conditions:
+
+      (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
+          Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
+
+      (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
+          stating that You changed the files; and
+
+      (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
+          that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
+          attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
+          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
+          the Derivative Works; and
+
+      (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
+          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
+          include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
+          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
+          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
+          of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
+          as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
+          documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
+          within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
+          wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
+          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
+          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
+          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
+          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
+          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
+          as modifying the License.
+
+      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
+      may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
+      for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
+      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
+      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
+      the conditions stated in this License.
+
+   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
+      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
+      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
+      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
+      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
+      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
+      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
+
+   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
+      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
+      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
+      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
+
+   7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
+      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
+      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
+      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
+      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
+      of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
+      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
+      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
+      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
+
+   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
+      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
+      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
+      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
+      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
+      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
+      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
+      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
+      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
+      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
+      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
+      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
+      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
+      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.
+
+   END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+   APPENDIX: How to apply the Apache License to your work.
+
+      To apply the Apache License to your work, attach the following
+      boilerplate notice, with the fields enclosed by brackets "[]"
+      replaced with your own identifying information. (Don't include
+      the brackets!)  The text should be enclosed in the appropriate
+      comment syntax for the file format. We also recommend that a
