Hello,

I am writing my final bachelor project. I have to run an Universal UR5 robot with speech recognition. At the moment I have signs like "right", "left", etc. in python.

So I've got a few questions. Is it possible to have an real time interface in the ur5 robot and the simulation? Do you have any ideas how to realise this? I read about an moveit interface with python. Is it working with this in real time?

I would be very greatful for any help =)

Could you clarify what you exactly mean with "real time interface". Do you need hard real-time 1kHz force/velocity control for instance, or is 10Hz position control sufficient? The quality of the answers will probably depend on what your requirements are.

10 Hz position control is ok. do you have any ideas?

Based on the requirements you state (and the fact that you haven't mentioned it yet), I'd take a look at the universal_robot package. It can probably do what you want.


The wiki page is a bit barren, but the README.md file in the github.com/ros-industrial/universal_robot repository should clear things up.

Note that the driver provides just a FollowJointTrajectoryAction server. You'll have to write a client yourself (ur_driver/test_move.py shows a minimal example of how to do this).
