Launching

Boxturtle

The tuck arm application is a Python script, tuckarms.py: 

USAGE: tuck_arms.py [b | l | r]

For example, to tuck both arms: 

rosrun pr2_tuckarm tuck_arms.py b

C-turtle or newer versions

The tuck arm application is a Python script, tuck_arms.py: 

USAGE: tuck_arms.py [-r <action>] [-l <action>]; <action> is '(t)uck' or '(u)ntuck'.

For example, to tuck both arms: 

rosrun pr2_tuckarm tuck_arms.py -r t -l t

rosrun pr2_tuckarm tuck_arms.py --right untuck
