By any means I'm no expert. That's the reason i ask for help. I learnd CATIA with free Springer-literature and tutorials of my university they gave me so i could teach other people to use it. Also a lot of video education on youtube. The benefit of connecting it is just learning i suppose.

There is already an model in CAD of the robot. I think the next step would be to animate it with systems engineering, so it moves like real. Then there comes the rest: Implementing Joypad-control, definition of the parameters to tweak the robot, get the parameters synchronized with ROS, and so on.

That's the thing i should manage somehow. Using the tools in the CATIA API while i get the data from the robot using ROS. I'm not fully sure if i understand everything but that sounds logical in my ears.

Hello guys, I’ve seen many posts about the Kobuki in this forum so I thought I could ask my question here. If that would be a misassumption please tell me. So I got a project assigned to make a visualization of the Kobuki in CATIA using basic CAD and systems engineering. It should move exactly like the real one, the real one should be controllable from here (teleoperations) [best case: with a joypad or joystick] and parameters of the software should be editable in CATIA, tested in the simulation and then be sent to the Kobuki. That’s a big task for me, because I’ve got just a bare minimum of wisdom in regards of robotics and informatics. I’m currently in my 8th semester of mechanical engineering. My problem so far is that I don’t know where to start to get to my destination. Could somebody perhaps tell me how he would start? That would be nice. Regards
