As mentioned in https://github.com/ros-industrial/ur_modern_driver/issues/267#issuecomment-468618899, @Zagitta wrote a MSc thesis in which he describes the design of the `kinetic-devel` refactor of the driver. Link to thesis: [Real-time Control of Robots with...
Idea is to introduce a small utility that would be able to check whether configuration and setup of the robot controller and driver is as it should be, and prints...
tool_communication: check path for 'tool_device_name' is free/available/owned by user if it exists
As reported in #107, if the path configured for `tool_device_name` already exists, there is a chance `socat` will be unable to use it. This could be due to permissions on...
# Summary The current implementation of the `hardware_interface` does not seem to register any [joint limit interfaces](https://github.com/ros-controls/ros_control/wiki/joint_limits_interface): https://github.com/UniversalRobots/Universal_Robots_ROS_Driver/blob/289655e24ca640c8aa1a6acbfaf6f5fc593dbe2c/ur_robot_driver/src/ros/hardware_interface.cpp#L289-L325 It's unclear whether this is by design or an oversight. Earlier issue...
Sort-of, as it's actually a bit more than what was included in #83. The proposed changes make the `joint_trajectory_action` aware of the state of the (OEM) motion server program (as...
As per subject. Happened to notice it.
For robots that lack ethernet (TCP/IP) networking support. Especially older robots often don't support socket comms, even if they have a network interface. Using serial ports can then be a...
It would seem the generic nodes in `industrial_robot_client` do not support the `joint_command` interface as described in section [1.3.3 _Motion Control_](http://wiki.ros.org/Industrial/Industrial_Robot_Driver_Spec#Industrial.2BAC8-Industrial_Robot_Driver_Spec.2BAC8-groovy.Motion_Control) of the [ROS-Industrial Robot Driver Specification](http://wiki.ros.org/Industrial/Industrial_Robot_Driver_Spec): > `joint_command` ([trajectory_msgs/JointTrajectoryPoint](http://docs.ros.org/api/trajectory_msgs/html/msg/JointTrajectoryPoint.html))...
While reviewing #263, there have been a few cases where the relay dropped points it claimed to "retry at a later time". From https://github.com/ros-industrial/industrial_core/pull/263#issue-675682823: > the streaming trajectory relay actually...
This is triggered by [Moveit executor sends wrong velocity on last waypoint?](https://answers.ros.org/question/338545) on ROS Answers (note that the title is most likely incorrect: it's not MoveIt related). I seem to...
