Mobile Device Setup
iOS devices do not require any special setup in order to run the Cozmo SDK on a macOS system.
Android devices require installation of Android Debug Bridge (adb) in order to run the Cozmo SDK. This is required for the computer to communicate with the Android mobile device over a USB cable and runs automatically when required.
