I am trying to write my pick-and-place python script using the color_recognition.py file as a reference. However, I feel like the XArmCtrl class does not plan a path and move near an object using a predefined path. I want to confirm my doubt. Therefore, please correct me if I am wrong. How can I use it to move to the point in the 3D coordinate?

Below is my code:

class XArmCtrl(object):
    def __init__(self, dof):
        self._commander = moveit_commander.move_group.MoveGroupCommander(
            "xarm{}".format(dof)
        )
        self._init()

    def _init(self):
        pass

    def set_joints(self, angles, wait=True):
        try:
            joint_target = self._commander.get_current_joint_values()
            print(joint_target)
            for i in range(joint_target):
                if i >= len(angles):
                    break
                if angles[i] is not None:
                    joint_target[i] = math.radians(angles[i])
            print("set_joints, joints={}".format(joint_target))
            self._commander.set_joint_value_target(joint_target)
            ret = self._commander.go(wait=wait)
            print("move to finish, ret={}".format(ret))
            return ret
        except Exception as e:
            print("[Ex] set_joints exception, ex={}".format(e))

    def set_joint(self, angle, inx=-1, wait=True):
        try:
            joint_target = self._commander.get_current_joint_values()
            joint_target[inx] = math.radians(angle)
            print("set_joints, joints={}".format(joint_target))
            self._commander.set_joint_value_target(joint_target)
            ret = self._commander.go(wait=wait)
            print("move to finish, ret={}".format(ret))
            return ret
        except Exception as e:
            print("[Ex] set_joint exception, ex={}".format(e))
        return False

            )

does not plan a path and move near an object using a predefined path ...

What does it mean? Can you please elaborate a bit more?

How can I use it to move to the point in the 3D coordinate?

I suggest going through MoveIt Tutorials. After finishing the official MoveIt documentation, you may check ravijo/baxter_moveit_tutorial to get an idea of how does MoveIt work. For example, after instantiating moveit_commander.MoveGroupCommander( ... ), you may call group.set_pose_target( ... ) and so on. However, please do not skip the official MoveIt documentation.
