Experimental

EXPERIMENTAL: This status indicates that this software is experimental code at best. There are known issues and missing functionality. The APIs are completely unstable and likely to change. Use in production systems is not recommended. All code starts at this level. For more information see the ROS-Industrial software status page.

Usage

Running Denso's VS060 in a simple world

First, if you run it for the first time, install prerequisite.

$ rosdep install vs060
$ ros-$YOUR_ROSDISTRO$-moveit-ros-visualization  (may not be necessary)

You can run VS060 manipulator on RViz by the following:

$ roslaunch denso_launch denso_vs060_moveit_demo_simulation.launch 

Then you can plan the arm's pose by using Interactive Markers, then actually move it to there by hitting Plan & Execute on MoveIt!'s RViz plugin.

You can simulate object avoidance too by placing objects in RViz. Here for example with tabletop.

Youtube example:

VS060 in iREX 2013 demo

You can run it on RViz by:

$ roslaunch vs060_moveit_config demo_simulation_cage.launch

You'll see VS060 sitting in a bit more restricted situation. vs060_irex_rviz.png

The actual robot is moving in the same but real environment:

Using Web Operator

Using rwt_moveit (package work in progress here) you can operate this robot via WebGL-enabled web browsers. denso/rwt_moveit_denso_1.png rwt_moveit_obstacle_1.png
