mmm.... I understand that the normal controller send a message to
supervisor for reset the position of the robot, the supervisor is in a
infinity loop reciever messages, when recieve a message, read it and
reset the position of the boot using supervisor_field_set.

But the controller's supervisor is possible do it in Java?
