What it does

  • Provides URDF models of the 5-DOF arm with gripper.
  • Runs in Gazebo Harmonic simulation with ros2_control joint trajectory and gripper action controllers.
  • Drives the physical arm through a hardware interface that uses Feetech servos and needs calibration first.
  • Includes a calibration tool that records min, center and max servo ticks for each joint.
  • Includes a servo test program that checks communication, position, voltage and temperature.
  • MoveIt2 motion planning is in progress: basic configuration exists, Gazebo integration and planning tests are pending.

Robots that can run it

No robot on Robotheca is linked to it yet. Links come from a robot's robot.yaml, from its dependency files read as text, or from Robotheca's editors.

Robotheca lists software as a reference: nothing is hosted or run here, and every fact links to where it was read.
