2017-07-13 14:46:22 -0500 | marked best answer | Custom kinematic plugins under moveit I know I'm jumping the gun a bit, but I was wondering if anyone's had any experience integrating custom inverse-kinematics plugins (e.g. ikfast) with moveit. I've created an ikfast solver for my robot, and followed the instructions at wiki/Industrial/Tutorials/Create_a_Fast_IK_Solution to generate a plugin. But it feels like this plugin may not be moveit-compatible?? When I run the moveit setup_assistant, I don't see my new plugin in the list of kinematics solvers (only KDL and PR2 solvers). If I manually edit kinematics.yaml to point to my new plugin, I get an error when running the planning environment: According to the loaded plugin descriptions, the class _____ does not exist. Declared types are ...KDL... and ...PR2... I also checked the moveit documentation for Groovy/Kinematics/Custom_Plugin, but it doesn't exist yet. Does anyone have any pointers, or is my best bet to wait for the documentation/code to be officially released? Thanks! |

2017-02-16 09:11:41 -0500 | marked best answer | Any Examples of URDF/MoveIt for Parallel Robots? I'm working on providing MoveIt support for a parallel (Delta-style) robot. Are there any examples of current parallel-mechanism robots that are being used with ROS? I have seen discussions from 2011 and 2013, but no links to actual code. I understand that we'll need to "cheat" a little in representing the robot in URDF, and provide our own FK/IK routines. I think I've got a good handle on the required steps, but it would be helpful to review any other example implementations, if available. |

2017-01-19 13:31:22 -0500 | commented question | Any Examples of URDF/MoveIt for Parallel Robots? The URDF is created with all floating joints. The tool plate is defined relative to base_link (a hack). The robot publishes 4 driven joint positions. A custom state_publisher node performs kinematics to compute the positions of all 8 links and the tool plate, and publishes the resulting transform |
2017-01-19 10:06:35 -0500 | commented question | Any Examples of URDF/MoveIt for Parallel Robots? We've actually completed this work, and published the ROS package for the delta-style Ragnar robot back in December 2015. |
2017-01-11 03:22:09 -0500 | marked best answer | data files for catkin gtest I am creating a Unit-Test program for my catkin package, using gtest. I have set up my CMakeLists.txt to compile the unit-test program and link against my package library. In one of the tests, I would like to read in an external data file to use in the test routine. This data file is in the same directory as my utest.cpp file: In rosbuild, I run tests using In catkin, I run What is the best-practice for dealing with test data files under catkin?
