Treat me as supper noob. So, I am trying to make a 5dof custom arm controlled by arduino. Steps taken : 1 - Have a URDF file of my arm. 2- Have moveit configurations done by move it assistant. 3- planned motion with move_group_interface.

Now I am stuck at how to proceed further, these are the questions I need an answer for : 1 - Do I have to write controllers used in controllers.yaml file in moveit configurations ? if yes then please share a tutorial. 2 - Can I use Fake_controllers from moveit ? 3 - After I plan the path how to forward it to the arduino node ? (I am not sure what I have to do with follow_trajecotry.action)

Your will be a life for me, any help is welcomed, thank you.

@Prof. xavier have you done Arduino tutorial for serial communication between ROS and Arduino ? if yes then you can easily interface your arm with Arduino .
