Is it possible to set up RoboDK to subscribe to messages published by ROS nodes?
How to configure ROS in order to publish data, e.g. positions, or joint angles, to the RoboDK? This in order to use the visualization features of RoboDK to simulate paths, and whole motion sequences.

This is probably possible, but without a bit of custom code, only on Linux. I'm interested in this as well and will update as soon as I have some results.

Not from my side.

Hey , how much better is robodk when in comparison with move_it module of ROS?
Asked by chrissunny94 on 2018-03-31 08:47:39 UTC
I feel it would be unfair to compare the two. See #q261368 for part of the reasons why. In short: MoveIt is a full motion planner that can find its own paths while taking (moving) obstacles into account. RoboDK is an off-line programming tool (a fancy one, but still).
